Going Nuts Over (get screen list)

An earlier thread and code sample from Glenn S., followed up on by JD has me
going crazy.

tell application "Script Editor" to get version
--> "2.0" (beta 36)

tell application "System Events" to get version
-->"1.2"

tell application "system events" to get screen list
--> Expected end of line, etc. but found class name. ['list' highlighted]

I can't even find 'screen' or 'screen list' in the System Events dictionary?
Where is this command even documented?

I can't get this command to work on OS X 10.2.4 through OS 10.2.6, even on a
brand new machine with a factory install *only* of OS X 10.2.6 (plus beta AS
additions) logged in as any user, including root.

Help?!?
