Hi guys,

threads = []

list = %w(aS, bS, cS, dS, eS, fS, gS, hS)

for space in list
  threads << Thread.new(space) {|numericalSpace|
    while 1
      puts "#{Thread.id}: #{numericalSpace}"
      sleep 2.5
    end
  }
end

Yes, there was a bug in my code, that being a typo of thread.id (should be Thread.id), but the biggest thing, was the fact that I needed to do a thread join.  So I added this:

threads.each {|eachThread| eachThread.join}

Now on to signaling!

Cheers, Phy
