Another class instantiates this class and starts it.  It is never 
started again because it should not ever stop unless some runtime 
exception is thrown.

It's not a Thread object inside a Runnable, it is a reference to the 
Thread object.  The Runnable is just that.  If two of these got started, 
it still probably wouldn't hurt anything.
