Okay, that's what I thought.  I was more wondering about the callbacks.

What is the difference between chaining callbacks together like you did
above and doing it like...

d.addCallback(int)
d.addCallback(lambda x: x*2)

I apologize, I am in the process of reading the Deferred HOWTO, and
should've finished before posting.  :-(
