If your py file name is calendar you would never make them work

It's unlikely to be a file name problem if it doesn't work using the python command line.. Thanks for the reply though.

httplib2 uses the standard library calendar module, that's the 'import calendar' line. But it ends up importing the calendar.py you have in your local directory, which causes the stack trace you see.
