Matlab is the native language of the group for which I am building this
interface. It is for access to ocean sensor data, and it's being done this
way so the scientists whose sensors they are can use a significant body of
legacy code in their analyses. (Though I was planning to sneak in an option
to use python scripts because that's what I prefer.)

But the fact remains that I have no trouble capturing stdout when I run
this python on the command line and it doesn't work when I run it as part
of a Django views.py and I don't where to begin trying to understand why
not.
