Sorry for the lengthy delay. My host was down for a couple of weeks, 
then I got busy here in the shop and in my personal life.

That would also require its own thread to process the messages on the 
second queue? Would I be correct in understanding that this is just a 
"technique" thing, something that you would do just to give the program 
more structure so that it behaves in a more logical fashion, but which 
does not really benefit the user of the program in a noticeable or 
practical way? (I'm not trying to sound critical here, just trying to 
understand where the suggestion is coming from.)

Take care and TTYL.
