Well, the code we've got is:

           hourly_data = [(t if status in 'CSRP' else None) for (t, status) in hours]

where status can be None.  I don't think I'm doing anything wrong.  I wrote exactly what I mean :-)  We've changed it to:

          hourly_data = [(t if (status and status in 'CSRP') else None) for (t, status) in hours]

but that's pretty ugly.  In retrospect, I suspect:

          hourly_data = [(t if status in set('CSRP') else None) for (t, status) in hours]

is a little cleaner.
