I didn't usggest that site.py was the answer.  My suggestions was the
commens in site.py lead to the answer.

  It adjusts the load path at Python startup

I admit to not understanding copletely how this works, but others make
this work.  Certainly pip makes it work. pip gives me many options on how
to install python libs.  The cool part, is I can use pip to install X in
python2.7, then again in python3.4, and they both work!  

I'll dig into this idea.  Others do not seem to have this problem.
