thanks, this kind of worked...
modified to check the subclass
 if type(x)==type:
            if issubclass(x,object):
                d.append(x())


What is the difference between:

class A:
    def __init__(self):
....
type <type 'classobj'>

class B(object):
    def __init__(self):
....
type: <type 'type'>


Shouldn't both be classobj?
Since they are not how can I tell this is a class I am after? What
would happen if I had a mix of both class A, class B(object)......?
