I am now only using the @Post("java") method to be able to use:
ClientResource client4 = new ClientResource(someURL);
CommentsResource commentsResource = client4.wrap(CommentsResource.class);
Representation representation4 = commentsResource.postJava(comment);rather than the more generic: ClientResource client4 = new ClientResource(someURL); Representation representation4 = client4.post(commitment3); my postJava() method doesn't do anything, it exists only to allow the code to compile. And since this is just a test case, it was convenient to be able to make the call with a Java object (although I guess it would be just one line of code to create a Json string). In any case, it is working for me (in this somewhat roundabout way) - so no need to spend any more time in the lotus position. Unless of course, by lotus position, you mean in the driver's seat of a Lotus Elise :) Thanks again for your thoughts!
