Request throws 'cannot encode objects that are not 2-tuples' at PyEcho object creation

I've been stuck on this problem for a little while before I found the solution. Hopefully this will save someone else time.

When creating the PyEcho object, I've gotten the following exception:

File "/usr/lib/python2.7/dist-packages/requests/utils.py", line 112, in from_key_val_list
raise ValueError('cannot encode objects that are not 2-tuples')

It turns out my version of request (v1.1.0) does not handle a "False" to be passed into the params field. Upgrading request to the latest (v2.5.1) fixes the problem.

I suggest adding this to a requirements file in the root directory. A pip install on this file will help prevent these type of issues in the future.

Ahh, yeah, sorry about that 😕 Good call @djfatchuck, I'll add a requirements file when I have a free moment. Or if you've done it your own checkout, pull requests are smiled upon 😄
