:>TCBPKF remembers the original storage key set by the system in the same sense

being remembered .  An authorized program can cause TCBPKF to remember 
something different, either by accident or design. 

Anything that changes PKF after the task starts will have a "lot of 'splaining
to do"

Should you use the mailblocks package and expect a response from me,
you should preauthorize the dissensoftware.com domain.

I very rarely bother responding to challenge/response systems,
especially those from irresponsible companies.
