In response to yasuo_ohgaki, the reason for the inability of the $_SESSION[] variable to hold
references is because a session is just a serialize()'d version of it's member variables
saved under a unique filename, with this filename following the user around.
$_SESSION[] is therefore limited by the constraints of the serialize() function
Although this is not <i>strictly</i> true, ($_SESSION does some handling to convert
messy variables (e.g. "s and ;s)) it cannot store resources due to the serialise()
function's dependancy
