Luis Nell commented on THRIFT-1460:
-----------------------------------

This happens for me too. I need to insert the following (unicode) string into 
cassandra:
{code}u'Shaq\u2013Kobe feud'{code}

Getting nasty python UnicodEncodeErrors with ascii codec.

I am running cassandra 1.0.7 with pycassa 1.4.0 and the [thrift 0.8 package 
from PyPi|http://pypi.python.org/pypi/thrift/0.8.0].

                
> why not add unicode strings support to python directly?
