Technically that's how javascript works everywhere. All declarations are 
hoisted to the top of the current scope. ES6 introduces block scoping which 
Node (V8) supports when using `node --harmony`. This introduces `let` which 
will replace `var` and is block scoped instead of function scoped. Prior to 
ES6 javascript has only function scoping.
