This does what I expected:

Out[6]: [1, 2, 3, 4, 5]
But this appears to be doing a __repr__ rather than making me a nice
string:
In [7]: str(iter("four score and seven years ago"))
Out[7]: '<iterator object at 0x0139F190>'
What's the correct way to turn an iterator over bytes into a string?
This works, but, ewww:
In [8]: "".join(iter("four score and seven years ago"))
Out[8]: 'four score and seven years ago'
You've started with a string.
>>> type("four score and seven years ago")
<type 'str'>
