 		 #124625 - yes and no all must be weighed
Responding to: ???'s previous message
While the overhead for a call to
ModuleGetFoo()
is more expensive than using an externed global, it's probably a reasonable expense in all but the stingiest of programs.

Agreed, if ModuleGetFoo is not called 100s of times every second or inside a loop, I disagree if it is.
