+1.
If you traveling into the field of concurrency, you have to change the mindset.
You should pick different abstractions for that. And collections is
one which you should leave to grow in single-threaded woods.
Or.. of course.. you can attempt to make them thread-safe.. But it
will be clumpsy , rigid and very error prone.
