One by one, baby. It just amazes me so many people don't think to check inside a function, especially when we normally think of local variables as being local to a function. If I wasn't familiar with locals(), it probably wouldn't even occur to me to try using locals() at the top level. I'd expect it to throw an exception like "No locals at global level".
