[Gambas-user] STATIC doesn't work?

Rethinking the item and browsing through the original VB code, I find a 
contradiction: is it sensible to have a variable declared as STATIC for 
a module? When declared with DIM the variable will live and hold its 
value for the whole time the program is running (i. e. the module/class 
is loaded) anyway. Or is this "VB thinking"? :-)
