@wrayal: Indeed. Crazy busy. o_O Do you have a link to one of Jed's 140byt.es gists using a named function?

@p01: I thought I had a better example where it wasn't picked up in the comments, but the only one I could see immediately was this: https://gist.github.com/962814

Thanks for sharing. The argument is sound. I relayed it to the master/parent gist.
