/**
 * This class implements a Thread-Safe (re-entrant) SimpleDateFormat
 * class.  It does this by using a ThreadLocal that holds a Map, instead
 * of the traditional approach to hold the SimpleDateFormat in a ThreadLocal.
 *
 * Each ThreadLocal holds a single HashMap containing SimpleDateFormats, keyed
 * by a String format (e.g. "yyyy/M/d", etc.), for each new SimpleDateFormat
 * instance that was created within the threads execution context.
