Using except: is a HUGE mistake

Watch out for Exceptions vs BaseExceptions.

We look at the difference between Python's Exception objects and BaseException objects, and we consider the use cases and reasons for Python's choice to make a distinction between them. Understanding helps us understand why we shouldn't use a bare except "except: ...".
