title: Private and public variables to a backbone view
body: <p>In a backbone view where would you put your private variables and your public.</p>
  
  <p>Right now I have something like this:</p>
  
  <pre><code>myView = Backbone.View.extend({
  
    initialize: function(options){
      this.myPublic = "I'm public";
    }
  
  });
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>I tried adding a <code>var myPrivate</code> before the initialize method but it threw an error. Where would private variables that are only used within the view go?</p>
