    Good points.  I am doing it per __init__ just to be cleaner about it since
I don't know what other purposes I'll put the class to.  Right now I'm fairly
certain that I'll only have a single instance but I have an eye for
resuability where I might have multiple instances and want separate defaults
in each.  IRC game server of some sorts, for example.
