You can also:

Jython 2.1 on java1.5.0_05 (JIT: null)
Type "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> from java.lang import Boolean
>>> Boolean
<jclass java.lang.Boolean at 17092455>

And this will not cause so much namespace polution.  In fact, unlike
import *, it is considered acceptable practice outside of the
interpreter.
