	Yes, the threading module is pretty simple to use.

	Queue makes inter-thread communication a snap.  In order for two
threads to send
	messages back and forth, you simply set up two Queues, one in each
direction.
	Drop 'message objects' (which can be anything that makes sense for
your
	application) into one end, pull them out the other in a different
thread, and
	everything pretty much just works--the Queue takes care of almost
all of the
	synchronization issues.

Many Thanks for the pointer... Has anybody got any working examples of
Queues, for this situation???
