ACK.

If something is to occur repeatedly in equal time *intervals*, then it might
be better (depends on the use-case) and is certainly easier to call
window.setInterval() once instead of window.setTimeout() several times.
window.clearInterval() could then be called once the number of desired calls
of the user-defined function has been reached.
