I think this is the problem in a nutshell, David. I've used a number of
other xTalks, and most of them won't allow you to send or trigger messages
in cards other than the one that's currently displayed. They generally have
you lock the screen, go to the card in question, execute the handler, then
return to the card you started from, then unlock the screen.

The fact that Rev allows you to do this is quite honestly a surprise to me.
Personally, I'd recommend moving the function you want to call to something
more accessible, like a stack, library, or backscript.
