+    Demo - Layout "Reuse" (but NOT reusing the layout)
+    As cautioned in the PySimpleGUI documentation, layouts cannot be "reused".
+    
+    That said, there is a very simple design pattern that you'll find in many many
+    Demo Programs.  Any program that is capable of changing the theme uses this
+    same kind of pattern.
+    
+    Goal - write the layout code once and then use it multiple times
+        The layout is reused 
+    
+    Solution - create the layout and window in a function and return it
