I did a quick little test. The card's script local variables are not accessible from the behavior script.
At this point you might consider using card properties instead. This is what I have been doing. This way each card can have it's own "variables" in the form of properties. Then you can have a function in each card script that returns the value stored in the property: function cardProp pPropName return the pPropName of me end cardProp Booyah. I use this myself. The nice thing about using properties is that if there is no such property there will not be any error thrown.
