Sorry, i forgot the values.

curr.pgsql.execute('''
INSERT INTO my_table(name, age)
SELECT name, age
WHERE NOT EXISTS(SELECT name FROM my_table WHERE name= name)
''', ('Scott', 23))

Sorry, I don't understand, where should I place the from clause? I just saw
a sample code like this in SO, so I gave it a shot
