Chaps, I think we've answered Tom's question in a way, eventually, I hope. He was suspicious of using Modules, and you've confirmed my suspicions that Modules are aliases for static classes that don't need to be qualified. No other .NET compliant language I know of hides what's going on underneath with a "Module" concept (except maybe F# where by default your methods go into one big anonymous class). I reckon you should avoid Modules, they always seemed a bit weird to me. Everyone recognises the word class.
