Maybe, but analysis of such asychronous events (unless *completely* 
separate, in which case they should be in separate programs) is beyond the 
capabilities of tools or humans except in the most trivial of cases. This 
leads to either being able to have correct code or code that really well 
models the system -- but never both. Ada of course leans toward correctness, 
as do I. The alternative is primarily garbage - that might appear to work 
but no one will ever know for sure.
