From a Stack Script using "this" does not always return the stack
the Script is running in. In order to guarantee that you get the
right stack use "me", or have a private function in the Stack Script
that does this:
function GetStackName
return the name of this stack
end GetStackName
If "GetStackName" is called from the Same Stack Script it will return
the correct name, since it was called by the same Script/Stack.
All the Best
