---------------

      The *let* tag accomplishes much of the same goals as the *with*
      tag. The main advantage of the let tag is that you can use it to
      define multiple variables to be used in a block. The *let* tag
      creates one or more new variables and their values and pushes a
      namespace object containing those variables and their values on
      to the top of the DTML namespace stack. In general the *with*
      tag is more useful to push existing objects onto the namespace
      stack, while the *let* tag is better suited for defining new
      variables for a block.
