I'no real OO fan, but maybe that's a good answer is this case: create an
object with certain vars, with corresponding functions, and further on
create another object with different vars.

Then again, I'm used to initializing vars. Every variable which is used I
initiliaze somewhere in the script, prior to setting/using it. No chance it
has a wrong value, and an extra security measure, usefull for instace when,
heaven forbid, I'm working on a server with register_globals.
