Hmm, maybe I stumbled upon at least one approach, turning the problem
around. Make it something like:
for i in ["alist", "blist", "clist"]
i[3] = "okey dokey "
print(eval(i)[3], i)
Of course I've been staring at this for a while, but as soon as I post I
find a way... this is my first use of eval(), so it took me a while to
stumble upon it. If there are more elegant solutions, I'm all ears.
Your code is still invalid. I still don't understand what you're asking
