OK, so the answer is to use php and not python on the web.  So sad when
pytjon is a much better language than php.  I had hoped to have one language
I could use for many things and that that language was going to be python.
But it seems that I will use python for many things and php for the web.  I
can live with that.

Yes, I have looked at that.  The main stumbling block is the in-availability
of ZOPE from IHPs.
