Also cleaned up some flakes noticed by pyflakes, and make the scrub() be @classmethod instead of @staticmethod so I could use the class for the verbose output. caveats: * there are no unit tests of this patch * now your logs of your stderr have potentially sensitive information in them * the implementation of arg parsing is very low-tech; (a *good* way to do arg parsing is the "argparse" module)
