Lets Talk More Threads

[Alex McHale]

Indeed, I was merely misreading.  It was one of those things where your mind
picks it up as one thing, and no matter how many times I read it, I still
read it wrong.  I misread 'at most once' for 'at least once'.
Sorry for the bad post.
On the plus hand, I've got it working beautifully for what I was wanting :).
