... Wow... I had known you were an idiot when you thought that Delphi 
was topical in a Java newsgroup, but you've managed to prove yourself 
more idiotic by thinking that composition and inheritance are the same 
thing.

I don't know where you learned object-oriented programming, but however 
much it cost you was a waste of money if you passed without being able 
to distinguish between composition and inheritance.

And, for the record, to see why Bartosz was right, I invite you to write 
code that can swap the head elements of two lists in a thread-safe 
manner, independent of the lists' implementation details (e.g., suppose 
was the result of Collections.synchronizedList and the other was a 
java.util.Vector). If you believe it can be done, then, boy, do I have a 
bargain-rate bridge I can sell you.
