*I've been using web2py for years using the system python, and I only 
installed python via homebrew recently for other purposes, and homebrew 
automatically replaced the system python as the default one to use (no 
complaints, since it's a higher version), which was why I discovered that 
it won't work with web2py. The only thing, I presume, is different, is the 
version of python. If you see the code in my first post, the respective 
versions for SYSTEM vs HOMEBREW are 2.7.10 and 2.7.13.*

*Oh good suggestion. I tried with both, and they both imported it fine. So 
it works in command-line python, but not with web2py (I dunno the right 
word for this... app / desktop app / guy)? I'll be happy to run any tests 
to figure out why... but do you think there might be something wrong with 
the version installed by homebrew??*
