You're not re-raising a RuntimeError. You're swallowing all exceptions and then 
raising a RuntimeError. Re-raise the original exception in
export_to_csv() and then handle it higher up. As Steven suggested, it is a good 
idea to handle exceptions in as few places as possible (and
as specifically as possible). Also, loggers have an exception method, which can 
be very helpful in debugging when unexpected things happen,
especially when you need to catch a wide range of exceptions.
