Hmmm... The following *does* seem to cause some sort of cpu-eating loop that
is hard to get out of:

on readMySocket
    .
    .
    .
  if mySocket is among the lines of the openSockets then
    read from socket mySocket until CRL with message "readMySocket"
  end if
end readMySocket

Is that what you meant?
