This will do it:
------------------------------------------------
T1 = [ ' "Field" ' , ' "12.5" ', ' "2.5" ']
T2 = []
for t in T1:
     T2.append(t.replace('"', ''))
------------------------------------------------

The "replace" function acts on each element in T1, replacing every 
double quote with nothing.  We then append that to the new list T2.
