### Question
How do I access the value of a subscription from inside an event handler?
### Short Answer
You shouldn't.
Philosophically: subscriptions are designed to deliver "a stream" of new values
over time. Within an event handler, we only need a one off value.
Operationally: you'll end up with a memory leak.
