To use this class/module you need BeautifulSoup ('s BeautifulStoneSoup).

For debugging stuff, I use marcbelmont's python-print_r,

  found here: http://github.com/marcbelmont/python-print_r

  This makes things easier when dealing with embedded dicts like we are.

The class should work something like this:

   >>> import underground

   >>> weather = underground.Forecast("New York, NY").RetrieveForecast(unicode=False)

   >>> weather

   {'low': {'fahrenheit': '18', 'celsius': '-8'}}

   >>> from print_r import print_r # (http://github.com/marcbelmont/python-print_r)

   >>> print_r(weather)

   low = 

       celsius = -8

       fahrenheit = 18

Note, this is a very new lib that I'm making for two purposes:

   1) To make it easy to grab data to generate dynamic weather images

      using PIL for a friend's project in TV Studio Class.

   2) To learn BeautifulSoup better, because it's a great library,

      I just don't know how to use it well yet.

Because this library (PyUnderground) is so new, it doesn't do much yet.

As of the next commit, fahrenheit/celsius *low* temperatures should work,

for any number of days in a forecast, 1-6.
