The problem persists.  By having the startAnimation in the view's
onClick, it fires just fine.  The problem starts as soon as I move it
into a Runnable or TimerTask called by either a Handler or Timer
respectively.

Basically what I'm doing is this:

        private Runnable fadeInInfo = new Runnable() {
                public void run() {
        
findViewById(R.id.TextViewInformation).startAnimation(animationFadeIn);
                }
        };

        View.OnClickListener clickListener = new View.OnClickListener() {
                public void onClick(View v) {
                        handle.postDelayed(fadeInInfo, 2000);
                }
        };
