I just wanted to clear something up. I get the impression in several of
the posts here that there is a belief the above syntax will result in a
single instance of the object BOB in the scene graph. This is not true.
There will be two. Unlike a programming language, where you define a
variable, then use it later in a function, DEF actually names an object
AND inserts it into a scene graph at the point of definition.
I just want to clear up any potential confusion.
