Which means that you can only run with an WOMessage. ERXThreadStorage  
can be used outside of the context of an RR loop.

All of these things are hacks, though and rather far from clean.  
Basically you provide extra arguments to every method because and  
because you're too lazy to do manually, you stuff it into some quasi- 
global variable with no API level documentation that it may be needed  
and how to set it. At least EXThreadStorage has the decency to clean  
up after itself when the RR loop is done, which makes it vastly  
superior to plain vanilla ThreadLocals.
