I grant myself a new promise with a text identical to the text of the "Neverending PRESENT" promise. 2.

Caller's Evidence: [The above message] Caller's Arguments: For the purpose of cashing a single instance of the above promise, every step should be determinate (and the conditional in step #2 well-determined), so the cashing should succeed and have the effects described in its text.
