from the page you quoted: " More precisely, if the thread is blocked at one of the methods Object.wait, Thread.join, or Thread.sleep, it receives anInterruptedException, thus terminating the blocking method prematurely."
I'm aware of sending an interrupt while it's asleep, but if I'm blocking on a bufferedreader.readLine(); it won't get interrupted. Is there any way around this?
