Yes, but assume two threads A (writes a one message containing "aaaa")
and B which (writes two messages "b" and "c").
You can be assured that B's data won't show up inside A's message:
ie. never aabaa
but you can not assume anything about the order they will be received.
If you want more detail read the book.
