Excuse me, not mentioning this, if there is another OMIT that falls on
Pentecost. I myself tested it with the PUSH - CLEAR - POP construction.

I never made any examinations about time consumation, but I think with
saving and clearing a whole environment it takes time.

Anyway my concept is: the shorter the better - it's better to read and
whith fewer lines you will probably make fewer mistakes.

I think we can now close the problem: Mother's Day in France.
