Will all readers of this thread kindly regard this as an example of how
*not* to generate and execute SQL queries in Python. Study the
cursor.execute() method, and provide parameterized queries and a data
tuple instead.
Please also note that the above technique explicitly continues to
generate SQL syntax errors in Krishnakan's case where the data values
themselves contain apostrophes.
