That's simply not the way things work. Local variables are local to the
context of the function that declared them, and are not supposed to be
accessible from any other context, including that of nested function calls
(that's how most languages behave).

Hi, all.
I'm just wondering why a variable defined within a function is not available
as a global to functions called from the same scope. There's probably a
really good reason for this, but I'm not sure I know what it is.
Feel free to educate me.
