That looks very strange. Why the ``if`` and the `sleep()`\s? The ``if``
condition is always true, so it's completely unnecessary. The `read()`
call is blocking, that means it returns iff the complete data is read. So
there's no need to wait or to check if all is read. If there's a problem
with the connection an exception should be raised by `urllib2`.
