Thanks for the link, I wish I'd read that before I wrote the original
code at least it might have reminded me that Enumerable#zip was an
alternative in my case ;-)

It's a pity about the slowness of continuations since we agree that
SyncEnumerator provides a very neat solution.  As you observed maybe
Rite/YARV will improve the situation.  We can but hope!

Thanks,

Matt
