Problem solved. Once I straightened out my path issues it came down to the following:
*python manage.py validate* works fine while * manage.py validate* does not. It just returns the help text as if I had run *manage.py* with no parameters. Clearly either Win7 or Python33 or Django 1.6dev is not passing the validate parameter to manage.py. I recall that under Win NT and XP you could adjust how parameters were passed when a program was set to execute an extension by default. If you can still set that I cannot find it.
