I almost never use our. Usually when I say global I mean global to the file and I might prefix the variable name with a g. our tells you something is "global" where you declare the variable, but it doesn't tell you that where you use it. You tend to use a variable much more often than you declare it so the ugliness of a g prefix is an immediate and obvious reminder at the point of use that this is a global variable.
