The problem is I only want to run this once for *all* my tests, just to
start in a clean slate.  I don't want to run it per sets of test.   It
*does* work if I put it in setUpClass of my Base test class but it takes my
tests from 5sec to 30sec because its dropping and recreating the db for
each set of tests.
