Yes, very true. I've mentioned before that I think PHP 5's object

actually saw this usage in early versions of the PHP 5 or Zend
Engine 2 proposals). Then, it's much clearer that:
$obj2 = $obj1
gives you a copy of the object handle, but:
$obj2 = &$obj1
gives you a reference to the handle.
From the point of view of an ordinary programmer: He's so right: It

absolutely clear! You _must_ put this in the official documentation!
I knew what was happening before but up to this few words I could not
put it down in words. Thank you, Mike!
