I'm using Python 2.0 at the moment (it is necessary as it is integrated
into another product), perhaps this limitation was removed in later
versions.  If I try to do this:

print "integer i = " + i

it will barf on this and tell me that i is not a string, I must do this:

print "integer i = " + str(i)
