ARe you sure? Without testing, I would assume you could because you are calling start on an object, not a thread. It should if my thinnking is correct, simply create a new thread and assign it to that object. If you object is properly defined to extend Thread, then start is not just a method, but actually should "create" a thread for the object, right?
