Re: Closures in leu of pointers?

No, actually, it's okay that it's local by default, after all.  TCL's got that 
capability of explicitly specifying the scope (up n or something like that?).  
That's okay for tcl, not sure if it would seem so elegant for python.  But you 
can't tell me that the scenarios that I presented in the beginning of this 
thread are intuitive.  I'm going to have a very hard time ever accepting a 
language that lets me read a variable but when I try to write to it, it 
suddenly doesn't want to have to do with it anymore ... but hey, like somebody 
said - everybody's got their own sense of 'plictedness.
