Well do post back if you don't manage to solve your issues (with full
error messages & stack traces as relevant please.)  Re dictionaries --
I actually forgot to mention, there's a specialized type of dictionary
class available in Python, called a "shelf", implented/available via
the "shelve" module, which is basically a dict with pickling built in.
 See here:

HTH,
