Thank you David for your help! I tried the code and got the next error:

 Python 2.6.6 (r266:84297, Aug 24 2010, 18:46:32) [MSC v.1500 32 bit
(Intel)] on
win32
Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information.
>>> import crawler_shp
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
  File "crawler_shp.py", line 85, in <module>
    srsText = srsObj.ExportToWkt()
AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'ExportToWkt'
>>>

Any idea?

My guess is that you are trying to write out the spatial reference
