Another poster made several good and I would say "correct"
suggestions.
Here's another for you to consider. At the risk of making your code
unreadable and possibly buggy;
Just "stick those pesky globals right down where you need em!
Suppose you have a module named A which imports B and B imports C...
>From A, it is possible to say B.C.var = something
This works but is a nasty hack that should be saved only for extreme
emergencies!
