Erv, you can always put global variables in definition modules. Then they will
be accessible to everyone. However, after programming for many years I've come
to the conclusion that GLOBAL VARIABLES ARE EVIL!!! So, they should be avoided.
I know it's impossible to program without ANY globals, but then it's impossible
to avoid all evil. One of my quick measures to judge quality of a program is to
see if it has a global variable named "i" – such programs are in very poor
style…
