Say, why do you have the ampersand before 'SOME_TEST' -- &SOME_TEST(...) -- but not anywhere else? Followup: why have an ampersand at all (in your proposed code)?

    I always use an ampersand as part of function calls. I understand that some people consider this to be unnecessary...but I disagree.

      Ok, then why be inconsistent in ampersand usage (in the example you posted)?

        In the example I posted &SOME_TEST was the only user-defined funtion call. I don't see the inconsistency that you are referencing.
