When I see a VB programmer using lots of globals it's a sign of their
inexperience to me.  Inexperience can also mean someone who goes from
job to job for years and is never actually around to maintain any of
the code they wrote.

The fact that Euphoria depends so heavily on globals is just another
indicator to me that it is not inherently modular.

I believe you are exactly right here Chris.

Again, I must emphasize that modularity is something the programmer
does, not the language.
