I haven't yet in this particular run; however, in my puppet ver 2 days, I 
created custom facts on the client nodes.  I find it hard to believe that was 
taken out of mix.  A search of puppet docs has this url.  
https://docs.puppet.com/facter/3.1/custom_facts.html

I'll probably be trying that one tonight or tomorrow depending on my ability to 
troubleshoot what should be a laughably simple class.  De-rustifying my PDL 
ability is a pain.

If anyone's interested, there are a couple of reasons why  I'm having 
${::environment} different from $facts['env'].  First, when designing their 
sdlc process, my company went nuts with different environments - way more than 
just the standard dev, qa, uat, prd and those environments won't match the 
puppet environments at least while we're rolling it out.  Second, I'd like to 
be able to get the env from the box when I'm on it.  Our naming convention 
isn't universal so getting that information is sometimes hit or miss "$ faster 
env" will be a lot easier than a MySQL query.

So, short answer and a longer story.  Thanks

Doug
