Ok, now my python newbness is going to show...
I figured out what was causing it. (but I don't know why it wasn't working
before)
I can do the following:
request.session['question_list'].append(question.id)
but not:
request.session['question_list'] = request.session['question_list'].append(

I don't think this is the best solution either, but would be a good
