Yeah, I know; any variable defined as private in the main program is public, for all practical purposes. Personally, I don't like using public variables either.
I am just thinking of the following. What would happen if I define a Timer with a local variable, in the main program? What would happen with the object? In any other place (outside the main program), the variable is invisible, but still exists. Would the Timer events run? Not that I am proposing such a radical thing, but I was just wondering what would happen.
