      HHH(DDD);   
      return;   
   }   
      
   HHH simulates DDD that calls HHH(DDD)   
   that simulates DDD that calls HHH(DDD)   
   that simulates DDD that calls HHH(DDD)   
   that simulates DDD that calls HHH(DDD)   
   that simulates DDD that calls HHH(DDD)   
   that simulates DDD that calls HHH(DDD)   
   that simulates DDD that calls HHH(DDD)   
   that simulates DDD that calls HHH(DDD)   
   that simulates DDD that calls HHH(DDD)   
      
   This is stipulated by the basic structure   
   of the relationship between DDD and each HHH.
