Open the file in append mode, with a mode string of 'a' (or
'ab' for a binary file) instead of 'w'.
>>> f = open('test-file', 'w') ; f.write('abc\n') ; f.close()
>>> f = open('test-file', 'a') ; f.write('abc\n') ; f.close()
>>> open('test-file', 'r').read()
'abc\012abc\012'

The NSA regularly lies to people who ask it for advice on export control. They
have no reason not to; accomplishing their goal by any legal means is fine by
them. Lying by government employees is legal.
