Subject: problem with eventmachine

I have following code, the problem is, when i start a connection to
the socket through telnet,  the data send by the server i get as
usual, but when i try to do the same through ruby code, the data send
by the server won't come to the client..until the server is shutdown.


 def receive_data data
    data = data.chomp.strip
    if is_symbol?(data)
      add_symbol(data)
      local_connection = self
      start_send_thread(local_connection)
    end
  end

  def start_send_thread(local_connection)
    unless @send_started
      p "Trying to send the data"
      @send_started = true
      @local_thread = Thread.new do
        loop do
          broadcast_data(local_connection)
          sleep(0.1)
          p "I am running"
        end
      end
    end
  end

  def broadcast_data(local_connection)
    for x in @local_symbols
      local_connection.send_data "#{x}"+rand(10).to_s
    end
  end

  def unbind
    p "Client closed the connection"
    Thread.kill(@local_thread)
  end
