yes, in this case they were meant to stay open to write and read multiple
messages.  I was hoping to read data when it is available, the other work
around was to specify n, but that also blocked once there was no more data
to be fetched....Either way I will stick to queues and this appears to be
expected behavior so you can disregard the report.  I should have known
better that I wasn't going to find a bug in python :)
