hmm...I always thought that the picture of "from deen import *" is

                                [locally]

     [0, 0, 0] <----------------- tblm

     [102, 39, 208] <------------ tbli

But obviously it's not. The compiled code of function gpa is still reference to a hidden deen.tblm 'global' object which I can't access anymore. A bad news:-(
