SB>What do the constructors do to running multiple instances of your
SB>application?

If a constructor is private, it cannot be constructed by any process 
other than itself.  In the public GetInstance() method, the reference 
can get checked for zero (having been declared static, it will be 
initialized to zero when created) and if zero, the class is created on 
the heap.

But... all alligators have only four feet.
