Yes.  Because the two processes communicate by sockets.  They are
essentially in a client/server relationship and eventually be
potentially on seperate machines with.  However, for now they are
running on one machine with and the 'client' just launching the 'server'
(as part of its own startup) before opening the communication. 
Eventually, I will remove the launching code as it will be assumed the
server is running semi-continously

Take care,
