Hi Bob,

welcome to the world of ZPT. It's a bit different than Python-tutor...

one of the big "issues" for Pythoneers and ZPT is syntax. If you are going 
to use Python in TALES you need to use Python syntax, ie. python: 
container.get().

If you are going to pass parameters, you have to use python. You might like 
to use python: path(container/get), i.e. "path syntax" but I personally 
find this unacceptable. My own preference would be pure Python syntax in 
TALES but this would break with Zope conventions and we're too late anyway.
