title: How can I maintain state in a yowsup python application
body: <p>I want to implement a USSD like application based on yowsup. Its like a question and answer like app.
  Example:</p>
  
  <p>Me: REPORT ----- > Yowsup number</p>
  
  <p>Yowsup app: NAME?</p>
  
  <p>ME: [my name]</p>
  
  <p>Yowsup app: AGE? </p>
  
  <p>ME: [age]</p>
  
  <p>etc</p>
  
  <p>I would like the app to gather all variables before doing a database insert. I would like to know how to implement this
   I was thinking of creating a global list to hold the data before inserting. Is this good programming practice?</p>
