People who understand global variables generally avoid using them at all costs. People who don't understand why globals create problems seem to want to use them, and then become baffled at the problems they cause. If you are learning python, very very low on your list of things to learn is global variables. -- Joel Goldstick http://joelgoldstick.com/blog http://cc-baseballstats.info/stats/birthdays -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
