Create a cooperative thread to processyour lenthy operation, and regularly
call "YealdToAnyThread". This will give CPU quotas to other cooperative
threads, and help your program to be nicely written (like if it was on a true
preemptive multithreading, with calls to YeldToAnyThread).

1. Yielding processor time w/o WNE?
Is there a way I can yield processor time w/o calling WNE and removing
events from the event queue?
Perhaps calling WNE w/ an event mask that masks everything? or does that
flush the event queue?
For example, If i need to do something at a particular time, I might
want to sit in a loop, yielding processor time, until I get to where I
want to be, and then do whatever it is... then continue with my
processing, without having my event queue munged.
Does EventAvail work for example?
