Can you give an example?  I'm curios because I never missed this and
I'd like to know what I am overlooking.  It may be that my mindset is
so Java / Ruby already that I simply do not think in ways that would
make references useful - or I deal with a different class of problems
which can be more easily solved without.

Kind regards
