Sure... you *can* get the address of an object by getting the string
representation of it using backticks, ex:

`my_obj`

A better way might be something some Python like this:

-----------
for obj in container.objectValues(my_obj_type)
    if hasattr(obj, attribute_name):
      print obj['id']
return printed
-----------

That would give you a list of *all* the objects that lack the specific
attribute, not just the one that you think you're looking for.

HTH,
