[Zope] Newbie question...

[Farrell, Troy]

If you are a python person, think of _ as a dictionary.  _['content']
returns the value that corresponds to the key 'content'.  _[content] first
evaluates content and tries to return the value that corresponds to the key
stored in 'content'.

Was that confusing ?!  Now I'm confused :)
