No and Always.
No, because that's not what I orignially presented. I offered an idea that
would allow eval an *exception* to reach up to that scope, not the above def.
I later asked, why it was the def could not see a in this case, and had some
interesting return dialog, to which I then added an idea on how it could
work. So other then for eval, I never suggested that Ruby be changed to do
that. I was only disscussing some interesting notions on the topic.
And I am Always learning Ruby, since my conversion in 2001. Perhaps you are
not ?

P.S. You know, I don't really like being antagonistic. But it is really
bothersome to have to deal such negativity. If you find the concept somehow
flawed then present an intelligent counter argument, don't just berail me for
having a notion all my own. And if you don't feel the disccussion belongs on
core then just say "Hey, guys, this should probably be on ruby-talk, can we
move it there?" Or, "Perhaps another list would be a good idea..." Rather
then being so accustional, as if we had violated some hallowed law.
