I am so stupid! I forgot to call t.Start(). Your suggestion to call t.Join() made that clear to me. It's working perfectly now.
I am so sorry for wasting your time like this.

Erik,
Are you calling t.Join() after starting the thread? If not then the application may be exiting before the thread has been run.
