I don't fully understand your statement about 2 pointers? An event
handler is simply a procedure of a object. When an event is triggered,
that simply means the procedure is called and parameters are passed to it.
So that explains why my code worked - I'm simply calling a method of
that interface. This all works as long as the interface reference stays
in scope of course - which it is in my case
