+ Strings in Python 2 are required to be in the PostgreSQL server
+ encoding when they are passed to PostgreSQL. Strings that are
+ not valid in the current server encoding will raise an error,
+ but not all encoding mismatches can be detected, so garbage
+ data can still result when this is not done correctly. Unicode
+ strings are converted to the correct encoding automatically, so
+ it can be safer and more convenient to use those. In Python 3,
+ all strings are Unicode strings.
