API
timeBombs.create(timeout, handler)
Create a time bomb that will explode after the the given time in milliseconds. It will return the bomb
object.
If the bomb explodes, the handler
will be called with the bomb id as parameter.
bomb.reset(newTimeout)
Reset the bomb by changing its current timer to a new value. If no new time is given, it will default to the initial timeout set when the bomb was created.
bomb.deactivate()
Deactivate the bomb by clearing the current timer, if any.
