It's only obvious if you're using Python 3.x. You have forgotten the
parentheses in the call to the print() function.
On the other hand, if this is Python 2.x, I have no idea. Next time,
please paste the actual error, not paraphrased. The error message
includes a traceback. and a pointer to where in the line the error was
detected. If it's pointing at the end of the second token, you must be
running Python 3.x
And since you're using that annoying googlegroups, see this:
