Yes. (assuming the last "this" is a "what")

The timeout object (and the 'me' if it's a behavior) are parameters which are returned.

Makes it real convenient to "what.forget()" the calling timeout object if necessary, without having to know/hardcode the name of the calling timeout object. Also allows you to have differently named timeOut objects calling the same handler and directly having access to your caller.

Ok, simple question -

Birthing a timeout object, and checking what gets sent along with the
handler being called --

pBlinker = timeout("blinker").new(1000, #test, me)

And in that sprite:

 on test me, what
    put "this is:" && this
End

So I guess the calling timeout object gets passed as the param? Because:

-- "this is: timeOut("blinker")"
