OK, point taken. But if the choice is between slowing down
variable look-ups vs running out of stack space, then well, much of
programming is all about trade-offs, but I think making *large*
variables public should perhaps be investigated as a workable
solution. I gather a large variable takes up as much room
in the "namespace" as a small variable. If so, then making a
few large variable public sounds like a small penalty for a big gain...?
