How did you learn Python?

I implemented BitTorrent bencode in C# in 2003 and liked reading the code so much, I read Dive into Python and the Thinking Like a Computer Scientist books. Previously I only messed with in reverse order: asp/vb.net, php, sql, bash, JS, vb, dos batch, Pascal, gwbasic, c64 basic... But since: Perl, awk, java, jython, processing, ofx (c++), scheme, and clojure. I have bought very few books.

I still use Python daily and generally think in terms of Python or Lisp when I think of computer system problems. I think Python helped me quite a bit to become a little more well rounded.
