| Hmm? Did I miss something? A few posts above we recoginzed that when I would do:
| 
| def genGraph(self):
|     "bla"
|     return self.data
| 
| then genGraph would return data from the class where it is defined and not from the object acquiring it. So it would fail.

How about you forget about Acquisition for now.

Define the method in the class you want to call it on.

Once you're happy with the way that works, you can use Acquisition to keep
things like state or configuration for a particular path.

If you CAN'T define the method in the class (not sure why you couldn't), then
you will have to define a method and pass an instance or a reference.
