    Thanks for the info. I added a link with some additional detail in the main body above.
      The link describes a slightly different kind of scoping, instead of having 'machine scope', which is larger than 'application scope', the link explains about 'page scope', which is smaller than the 'request scope'. Those scopes come from my own humble experience. The most important point is that you understand the differences between each scope and what each should handle.
