in reply to use strict seems to hose my code

my localizes the variable being declared to the current block, so if you are declaring a variable in a loop, and then try to access it outside of that loop you'd get a Global symbol XXXX requires explicit package name error running the script from the command line. 
use strict;
foreach (0 .. 5) {
    my $foo++;
}

print $foo, "\n";     # throws error
