Note Submitter: shyam dot g at gmail dot com ---- in response to Michael's comments, it is imperative to observe that static variables in methods of an object are not class level variables. and since both a and b from the previous example are 2 different objects, there is no question of the static variable being shared between the objects. The variable is static with respect to the function and not the class. sam
