Fair point. 

Brevity is not all, however. Saving to a local has the merit that it
remains available for later use, whereas r() results are ephemeral.

" If you want to do it that way, fine but 

levelsof state, local(allstates) 
foreach s of local allstates { 
	...
} 

is one statement fewer."

Shortest version yet: 


*************
levelsof state
foreach s in `r(levels)'{ 
	...
}
*************
