This used to be the case.  But as of version 3.3.8, you can
in fact issue an UPDATE, INSERT, or DELETE against a table
while a SELECT is running on that same table.  

This change was introduced unannounced in version 3.3.8.  So
many long-time users (such as Tom) don't know about it.

Yes, I know, I should do a better job of announcing
important changes like this.  I stand rebuked.  I'll
try to do better....
