Threads, namespaces, and the immortal event

I'm abbreviating this so much, because I tried the code you
posted, and either it doesn't run or, modified slightly,
it runs and works like I think you would expect.  (I made
"a_subclass" inherit from threading.Thread.)

Don't feel that you must post the exact code you're working
on, but why don't you make an example like this - and then
verify that it can be run and will exhibit the behavior you
are asking about.  (And mention the platform.)
