# Python ascii codec can't decode and unicode mess
#
# check this out https://pythonhosted.org/kitchen/unicode-frustrations.html
# and this http://www.joelonsoftware.com/articles/Unicode.html
#
# The short of it is this
# 1. If you can, always set PYTHONIOENCODING=utf8 before you start your python programs.
# 2. If you can't or you can't ensure this, always use the following lambda _u to get unicode text
#    whereever you convert to strings (str.format, str % etc.)
