Lets Talk More Threads

[Alex McHale]

Ok,
  Using the Thread class, which I'm extremely happy with, I've run into a
problem.  The documentation on the class suggests that you can obj.start( )
a thread multiple times.  Yet, when I do this, I get an error to the effect
of "thread already started"
What I'm needing to do is have a thread which I can resurrect over and over.

This isn't the code I'm dealing with, but it is a simple parallel (abstract,
no imports, etc)

actions = myThread( )
actions.start( )
while actions.isAlive( ):
  sleep(10)
if not actions.isAlive( ):     # this is only to emphasize that
ctions.run( ) has indeed finished
  actions.start( )

and this gives the above style error, every time.  Am I missing something
here?
