import from file not on the PYTHONPATH

[staetzsc at my-deja.com]

Is there a way to specify a path for the file that a module is located
in?

something like:
import '/dir1/dir2/mymodule.py'

I am writing some scripts that will be located in different directories,
but will use some common functions/classes. The people using these
scripts are not python users, so they will not have a path setup and I
don't have write priveleges to where the python modules are.

I'm pretty new to python, so I am scared that this is a really dumb
question :-)

Thanks,
Steve
