I don't know why I think this way (I'm sure there was some subliminal
programming done to me at some point), but I recall either reading or being
told that "global" variables are a no-no in object oriented programming.
When I program now, I try to avoid global variables (you wouldn't know this
by looking at my code, though :) by passing the variable to the function or
procedure, having the func/proc manipulate that data, then spit it back out.

For example:

database = manage(database)

I figure in the future it will be easier to debut. But what do I know, really?

Maybe I should go back and review all I've "learned." Then maybe I won't be
so confused.

Later!
