That can't be the failing code, since it's failing at line 11, and
that's only 5 lines. It helps if we can tell which line generated the
error. ;)
I'm _guessing_ that line 11 is the print(), and it's barfing because
stdout is using ascii encoding, and there's no way to encode that
character in ascii so that it can be printed to an ascii output
stream.
