It's also why SQLite's not a real RDBMS. Fortunately this doesn't stop

What does pysqlite extending the DB-API have to do with *SQLite* not
being a "real" RDBMS?
Nothing at all. I was just being pissy. Sorry about that.

c.execute("select * from stocks")
for s in list(c):
print s[0]
c.execute("select * from stocks where price<20")
for sp in c:
print ' '+sp[0]
c.close()

The simple addition of list() should do away with the dependency on
mysql's implementation, since it forces the instant fetch of all data.
Whether that is better than to use a 2nd cursor is probably a matter
of taste.

Using "*" in selects is always bad, though. ;)
