in thread 'our' is not 'my'

As I understand it, it's a deliberate typo to show that when using our, the typo called "slq" will get caught (instead of being treated like some new variable as happens when variables are global).

So, maybe I'm misunderstanding (I don't write speak or read Perl yet, lawlz), but I thought "slq" was the whole point.
