It's interesting, I went back and read the spec on ejbCreate, and no-where
does it actually state that intiliation Must be performed in ejbCreate and
not the constructor. It is somewhat implied, but not actually stated.
In any event, since the beans context isn't set until After it's constructor
is called by newInstance, it does make sense to perform All initialization
in the beans ejbCreate methods.
