Tony,

>>> individual clauses in a boolean expression are evaluated in the order they are written.

Clauses in an _expression_, yes.  Arguments in a subroutine call, no.  The languages I am familiar with evaluate ALL arugments before making the subroutine call.  The order of evaluation may differ and it may not even be guaranteed, but all arguments are still evaluated.  But evaluation multiple arugments has nothing to do with evaluating expressions WITHIN an argument.
