Yes, you're right. It's almost as if the function call 
http_wait_with_timeout/2 makes the message go missing or changes the pid 
or... I can't really figure it out. I'm rather new to Erlang and this is well 
beyond my knowledge. :)

One other question I had: I am assuming my http_wait_with_timeout/2 function 
will have the tail call eliminated by the compiler. Is there some way I can 
test whether this is happening or not or do I have to rely on inspecting the 
code?
