Even the experts get threading wrong

the problem is that even with such articles and detailed descriptions of 
the "problem" poeple tends to think that these types of errors do not 
touch their multithreaded development - because "the others have 
problems not i" and only a few people have seen multithreading errors
they are the very same as the aliens in the x-files tv-serie

aliens => multithreading race condititons
*the unknown
*the hidden
*in contact with the government

fox mulder => the expert doing threading
*known that aliens do exists
*try to catch them
*try to prevent others from being catched
*always telling dana that "the truth is out there"

dana scully => newbie to experienced developer
*got a feeling that aliens maybe could exist
*thinks that fox mulder is not an rational thinking guy
*not willing to see the truth
