Ken, I notice that the article, while correct, isn't actually  
representative of how arrays are *actually* used in Director.

The article at one point says:
Director

set myList = [["Troy","Ken","Richard"],["Kevin","Jan","Judy"]]
put getAt(myList,2)
RESULT: ["Kevin","Jan","Judy"]
put getAt(getAt(myList,2),1)
RESULT: Kevin
---------------------------------------------

While constructs like "getAt(getAt(myList,2),1)" would in fact work,  
I have *never* seen anyone do that. Why would they?

They would instead do "myList[2][1]", which delivers the same  
results, and is obviously a lot more clear in terms of targeting data.
