Cool...now I get to play. Perl does it because it goes out of scope once the sub is run. I am pretty sure you can tell TclOO to do the same thing (play time) if it already doesn't do that.

In the end, they all make trade offs depending on the "whim" of the language designer.

Jesus Christ, you don't even know tcl. Why are you blathering on here? No, tcloo objects are not garbage collected. That's the whole point here.

Yeah just blathering. Carry on.

So, about four posts before this one, you said:

> Many scripting languages in practice do reference counting GC that will reliably and deterministically clean up resources other than memory.

When challenged, you offered one. So, is this a Perl-only thing, or can you give other examples?
