Jerry, you have stepped down to evan's level for sure.
this is a string: "It's Late".
this is a variable string: $x="It's Late".
The variable is nothing more than a shortcut.
The variable allows us to use the same information over and over and at
numerous places. We don't have to use a variable but it is there.
It is cvalled a variable because the content can change as desired.
I'm done with you here, asswipe.
