all of your answers were very well put :). The reason for the question (and it is valid in my point of view) is that i have variables being passed through several scripts and subroutines and instead of continuously passing them around and around, i just wanna keep them global. I'm not worried about losing track of my global variables, because i know all of my global variables start with $global_(variablenameinhere) and i do keep all my variables named accordingly with prefixes of what they do or what they're there for.

Even with perl's implementation of 'our' as an internal function, will it still be wiser to use 'use' instead of 'our'?
