OK. And thanks for the example :-). It looks simple enough... I didn't 
think the solution would be overly complex. And the RLock makes it 
easier than I anticipated - was RLock not in existance when Synch.py 
from the old Python metaclass tutorial/demo was written?

Hmm... efficient is good. I was planning to do something with some kind 
of lock, but I'm fairly new to multithreaded programming. What would be 
a more efficient way to accomplish this?
