I ++ this method. But I wanted to note that there is an extra advantage to this method over using \@stuff as advocated by several other people. Doing, for example:

$self->{clientcrgunit}= \@stuff; @stuff= getNextBatchOfStuff();
will cause $self->{clientcrgunit} to be modified to hold the list returned by getNextBatchOfStuff(). So, if you don't go with arturo's solution, you should probably use: $self->{clientcrgunit}= [@stuff]; instead. You can avoid this extra copying if you know that @stuff is a lexical variable that won't be modified again until it is destroyed.
