namespaces getting confusing

[Mark Robinson]

Thanks guys, I see the problem. Perhaps If I explain why I was trying
to do that you could suggest a better alternative.

I have a module which basically declares a number of global variables,
reads some files and basically performs a number of initialisation steps.

Is the best thing to stick all this in the __init__() of a class which I 
declare as global?
