Servlet static variable not accessible from init() ??

[Jonathan Wilson]

I'm setting a servlets private static variable from within itself  via 
the contextInitialized(SCE) method but it's not accessible from the 
init() method once that get's called...I would have thought the static 
part would make that variable accessible to all thread of the servlet 
that was started...or is something else going on? Any help is appreciated.

public class controller extends HttpServlet implements 
ServletContextListener {
   private static Logger cblog = null;

   public void init()
   {
       System.out.println("cblog="+cblog);
   }
   public void contextInitialized(ServletContextEvent sce) {
      cblog = Logger.getLogger("cb");
      System.out.println("cblog="+cblog);
   }
<snip>
}
