I think that because of the magic used in bless(), you have to create a new
variable for each new object.  Like if you do this:

my $Style1 = new Style_Sheet("Body_Text", 12, "Times");
my $Style2 = $Style1;
$Style2->Name('Head'); # given you have a method called Name

print $Style1->Name; #prints 'Head'

I think you have to create a new object each time if you want to use more
than one at a time.

As to the second question, I'm not sure how you mean.
