I have found an analogy that seems to work in explaining scope.

...

The analogy of water and identifiers is a start in understanding how identifiers work in source-code.

Sorry Tom, but my mind must work differently. I read this many times and each time I got more and more confused about the topic. And I KNOW identifiers! Also, I have some fundamental disagreements about the assertions mentioned in the analogy.

If the analogy helps someone then good, but it wouldn't be much use for me.
