Ultimately, it will be multithreaded -- and I had intended to wrap the
access to the global member in a lock to ensure only one thread could
get a value at any point.  It might also become multiprocess (ugh!)
and so might need to live in its own SocketServer some day.  But for
now, I agree.  Simple is good.  I just wanted to be sure I wasn't
oversimplifying, you know?

Thanks!
