Forgive my ignorance -- and maybe it's just too early for me to be posting -- but I have to ask because it's confusing me: Why is this so much better than $main::Ben_Tillys_Variable? If it's just syntactic sugar, that's fine -- I just want to make sure I'm not missing something here....
(BTW, Brother Dominus, good to have you back. I noticed an absence of posts from you for a few days.)
