in my opinion a VERY unfortunate oversight on the part of Sun.
It's one example of some lack of coordination in designing the
class layout of java. So yes, it's fine that you declared a
variable as:
java.util.List foo;
Generally, for my own sanity, I only import the specific classes I need
from either java.awt.* or java.util.*, whichever I need fewer from.
That saves me having to worry about it.
Good luck.

But when you import java.util.*; and java.awt.*; and use the List class, the List class from .awt conflicts with the List interface from .util, so I had to specify "java.awt.List" which I've never had to do before.. is this an error, or just one of those unavoidable things you run into when you are a master 1st year programmer like myself? :)
