Please don't put your code here, what happens when you upgrade your 
Python version?

It's a little frustrating because all my problems seem to be exactly the same, which is running scripts that should run easily...bu nothing actually runs.  What else do I need to do to make this thing work?

It should be in c:\python27\lib\site-packages.  It's also far easier to 
use pip to install code.  It's already available as an option with 3.4 
and I think will be automatically included with 3.5

Finally it looks as if you're using googlegroups.  If that is the case 
would you please read and action this 
https://wiki.python.org/moin/GoogleGroupsPython to prevent us seeing 
double line spacing and single line paragraphs.  Better yet access this 
list via https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list, thanks.
