    Tell him it is NOT redeclaring, it is only allocated
    once, at the 2..nth time in the while the 1st declared
    variable is used...

    It is just a local, like this: 
    ...
{
 my $var=<FILE>;
 while ($Var)
 {
  ...
  ...
  $var=<FILE>;
 };
}
# $Var out of scope
...

    Try that on him ;))
