Yep, I think you all made a point when saying "probe" in english is really
not quite... optimal ;) I personally like the PortWine idea very much -

By now, I wanted to thank all of you who have provided feedback and ideas.
I will wait a little more time in case somebody who hasn't spoken up yet
wishes to do so :)
Bye,
David
