I think the intent is that interrupting a blocked file channel is an 
immediate abort, not a way to stop the thread cleanly.  From the docs on 
ClosedByInterruptException;  "Checked exception received by a thread 
when another thread interrupts it while it is blocked in an I/O 
operation upon a channel. Before this exception is thrown the channel 
will have been closed and the interrupt status of the previously-blocked 
thread will have been set."

Are you deliberately interrupting the thread or is something 
unanticipated happening?
