RE: Is GetMoviesError thread safe

Taken from an email much earlier on this list, my understanding is that QT
is not multithreaded, but safe. It "serializes" all calls, so if two threads
call QT, only one will be running at a time. But QT probably has only one
set of global variables in a process, so all threads in that process share
variables (e.g. GetMoviesError) and you get the situation where a failed
call in one thread, gets reported in the other.

Hope this sheds a little light on a post Thanksgiving weekend.
