Eh, uh, I am wondering why I thought it was a very bright idea -- I
think because you would avoid the global and store the as a parameter of
the engine. Of course you are right... But... You could have:

def checkCondition():
	if condition: myRecorder.command='addPlotData()' # checkCondition will not be called anymore
def addPlotData():
	...
