Instance Variables

Can anyone tell me if it's possible (and if so how) to retrieve an
instance variable from my jsp into my tag?

i.e.
jsp code:

<%! private Thing foo;%>
<% public void jspInit(){
            try{
                foo = new Thing();
            catch(Exception e){
                //handle exception
            }
        }
%>

and then call:
    myThing.bar();
from my tag.

Look into scripting variables in JSP. The main JSP books seem to all
discuss them.

I'm pretty sure scripting variables is the right term.
