I knew there was a reason the hairs on the back of my neck stood on end when I wrote that code =) Of course, I tend not to import and call everything with $object->method just because I like the clarity of it. Sheesh, I'd have been bitten by that, but not until the pattern was well set! Still, it will work with this (frickin huge) caveat.

Probably not recommended then, but useful.

BTW, you mangled your </tt> tag there...
