[mod_python] import site errors, and constant modules (Re)loading

Micheal,

  Thanks for keep up with me..... I moved everything to a separate
module, and I imported the module, used the db connection, etc. 

   Is it possible that I am not returning properly?   When you are using
the publisher handler, all the documentation and examples I have seen
have a "return content" at the end.  So I am storing everything in a
string, and "return"ing at the end of my handler method.  

  I can't figure this out, nothing is getting garbage collected, and
that must mean it is still in scope in some context or other.  


  idea?

thanks,
  Joshua
