         You could probably skip the last unpack and pack and just have a 
message >add $2 $3| since you only want the second and third components of 
the list.

         Unless I'm missing something here...

         or.... have the two inlets go into a pack, and then into a lister 
(from... zexy, I think. it works like a float object) and bang that lister 
when you need the info sent.

         Might clean things up a bit...
