I can imagine what a module scope might be, and what "our" does isn't it. So there's the problem. We imagine different things for that word, and then we have no authority to define it. That's *why* you should use the *proper* words. No communication without that. For the record, "my" and "our" have *precisely* the same scoping rules. The variable name they introduce has different bindings, however. -- Randal L.
