    Synchronizing on the class would be cumbersome. Presumes that only 1 stream 
that uses this class would ever be in use. So, it'd affect threads outside of 
the one stream being run. Given the circumstances, the local variable lock is 
appropriate, but should probably be final to ensure it isn't accidentally 
re-created after this classes instance is created.
