It is better, generally, to write:
eval "$call"
In this instance it doesn't really matter because the words in
$call will be split up on the whitespace and stuck back together
with spaces, and will effectively be unchanged. But on day you'll
have constructed a command string with tabs or multiple spaces in it
_which_need_to_be_that_way_, and on that day the lack of quotes will
mangle them horribly. So acquire that habit now.

Some people think that buying safe car excuses them from the
responsibility of learning how to DRIVE the f**king thing...
First you learn to drive, THEN you buy a safe car.
