This turns out to be of interest to me.  I went to the vault and looked for 
it but didn't find it where I expected to.

I expected to find it in the folder "concurrent programmng".

Instead I found it at the root wiht the name "continuation..."  Only the the 
very fine print gave a hint as to its true utility
