       void call_out( string fun, int delay, mixed arg );

DDEESSCCRRIIPPTTIIOONN
       Set up a call of function <fun> in this_object(). The call
       will take place in  <delay>  seconds,  with  the  argument
       <arg> provided. <arg> can be of any type.

       Please  note  that  you  can't rely on write() or say() in
       <fun> since this_player() is set to 0.  Use  tell_object()
       instead.
