Hands off this stuff, bad mojo!

You've been told three very different approaches now, which is a pretty 
good indicator that there is no obvious way to do it. Which means 
another angle to your problem might make it a lot easier.
(btw: Try 'import this' at the python prompt for some wise words.)

Please describe your problem and let us suggest that new angle.
