It's common for people asking questions about the language to post reduced cases or minimal code, i.e. to post the smallest code they can think of that demonstrates the problem.  This is a good thing, because it lets the rest of us focus on the actual question, rather than on details that are irrelevant to the question.  And everybody here is picking on his example as if this were production code.  Not to mention picking on his capitalization.

Well, I don't get this. I was trying to point out that without a 2 sec delay, 
there's a risk of running multiple tests in parallel. I don't know about you,
but to me that's a bad thing, even if it's not production code. On my computer,
for example, the output of tasks from the different tests got mixed up. I may
agree that I could have phrased it differently, but I can't see the reason for
anyone to read it in the worst possible way. 

Sheesh, was it?
