are you starting it from the terminal? if so, you have to initialize 
your wx.App with 0 or False as the parameter. 1 or True indicates that 
you want output directed to a created window, which is nice if people 
are starting the app with a double-click, but not so good in that it 
goes away on a crash.

So your startup code looks like:

app = MyApp(False)# put in True if you want output to go to it's own window.

app.MainLoop()
