Yes of course I am, thank you for pointing that out.
I don't know why I have this overwhelming need to see variables 
explicitly defined ... years of 'same old same old' I suppose.

I do seem to remember reading something about Python moving towards 
static typing and there are tools out there to help avoid run time
