Because INSTALLED_APPS isn't a tuple or a list, it's just a string. The
trailing comma is important there. :-)

That last line suggests the problem. If you're in the ea/ directory,
"import ea" will try to import ea.py, not the ea module. Don't have
multiple things with the same name and I suspect your problem will go
away (e.g. call the directory "ea_app").
