I have a multithreaded server - one thread / client.  I have a client
1 connected to thread A, and a I have client 2 connected to thread B.
After certain equal period of inactivity Client 1 sends a message to
Thread A.  Thread A receives the message, and sends it back to client
1 as well as client 2.  Client 1 receives the message succesfully but
then when Thread A tries to send to client 2 out of a sudden Thread B
throws "Connection Reset By Peer" where it was blocking on
.readObject(); (note that Thread B has not read anything from CLient 2
cause Client2 never wrote anything.) and then (right after that)
Thread A throws a "Broken Pipe" exception where it did .writeObject()
which is strange as Client 1 actualy receives the message succesfully
from thread A.  This only happens if there is a period of inactivity
on both clients, other than that everything works fine.
