I didn't say "leaks" in my slides. That's what you're misunderstanding. It merely creates a closure. This *can* lead to leaks, but doesn't always. I guess at some point I aught to pick up Error::Filter again. Damn that hard drive crash (which lost the source code I had for a source filter version of Error.pm, which didn't create closures). -- <!-- Matt --> <:->Get a smart net</:->
