Check the docs on callLater()
http://livedocs.adobe.com/flex/2/docs/wwhelp/wwhimpl/common/html/wwhelp.htm?context=LiveDocs_Parts&file=00001438.html
it queues the call in the next refresh. So, maybe you never get another
refresh and hence no call.
What is it you are trying to do actually? Perhaps
setTimeout(closure:Function, delay:Number, ... arguments):uint
would be better suited?
