Event driven was Re: Hmmmm.....$1 Billion

How does one simultaneously do a data queue operation and a screen read? 
VARPG (from what I've heard) supports event driven stuff, but not RPGILE. 
For example, the user is on a screen, but then another event comes in 
(let's say a critical update from a shop floor counter) and it needs to 
update the screen.  Traditionally your RPG or COBOL is waiting on the read 
of the screen and is not checking the data queue at the same time.
