All,
I wanted to put a final note on this thread for I have been to the mountain
and I have spoken with the wise one himself. I asked JHT (John Henry
Thompson, father of Lingo, coder extraordinare) a few questions about this
topic:


1.      Where is that lookup table stored? 
The symbol table is stored in RAM as a global data structure.

2. Is it persistent with a given movie or the application? 
The symbol table is persistent with the application.

3. How would I go about "clearing" that? 
There is no mechanism for clearing the global symbol table, short of
quitting and re-launching the app.


Folks had been asking about where this information is stored, when if at all
it gets cleared, etc., so I thought I'd share what I heard back from JHT.
Hope that helps.


Cheers,
