Once you've read the file once, the file pointer is at the end of the
file, and reading it again returns the empty string. Example:
>>> y = gzip.open('spam.gz', 'rb')
>>> y.read() # read to the end
'spam spam spam'
>>> y.read() # anything left?
''
>>> y.seek(0) # go back to the beginning
>>> y.read()
'spam spam spam'
