No, 'one' would not.
In your while-loop you setup 26 timouts at nearly the same time,
so they will ALL fire 200 milisecs after you call INTRO().
That 'you' would is quite understandable seen your selfprofessed incredible
stupidity of not reading the specs and not analizing the working of your
code, for instance by filling the code with numerous console messages.
I suspect you don't know why you use the variable 'refresh' 26 times with
different pointers and not even use the last one.
