The doc says, "The parameters are evaluated before they are passed to 
the send command."

I used to try to do this the hard way, too.  I was trying to handle 
quotes and all sorts of problems.

I think what you want is this:

send "doThis toThis" to me

These might be the same if toThis contains a number or a one-word string 
that is not a variable, but in general these are not the same.

Uh, it's been a while since I've addressed this, so I may be confused.

I pass on the pass part.
