OK, it works. But *why* ? In any other context, the content of a quoted string is not evaluated -

Think of it as a 'do' that also specifies the message path location and maybe changes the defaultStack.

The statement is executed right up until the actual invocation (the parameters are evaluated by this time), and then there's an optional wait until some time, and then it is dropped into the message path pinball machine.
