Interesting, I didn't know it changed based on locale.

So, I guess in a more general term, if one wanted a way to constantly access
letters A-Z it would probably be better to hard code a string like so?

In [1]: myupper = 'ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ'

or maybe,

In [8]: ''.join([chr(x) for x in range(65,65+26)])
Out[8]: 'ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ'
