This one is easy - its obviously the value that is returned when the value
is returned when you call for the value that you are interested in, unless
you are interested in the bare value, in which case its the value that is
returned.

I am beginning to suspect that Steven de'A is hammering away at this 
to take his mind off the recent cricket game between his country's team
and India.  Anything is better than contemplating that.  It was enough to
shake one's faith in Southern Supremacy...
