You'll get a better understanding of this by taking a look on Variables and Scoping tutorials, and I definitely recommend this article too.

Note that this isn't an issue of scoping, and none of those links discuss symbolic references.

No worries, and thanks for editing your node! In the context of the question, the difference between lexical and package variables is relevant, which those tutorials do cover.	[reply]
