+   *
+   * The Cancelable interface defines a common method of adding general <i>disable-and-exit</i>
+   * semantics to some object. By cancel()ing a Cancelable object, a request is
+   * made to disable that object. 
+   *
+   * <b>Disabling</b>
+   *
+   * A cancel()ed object may not necessarily abort it work immediately. Often, it much more
+   * elegant for a cancel()ed object to complete handling whatever responsibilities have 
+   * been assigned to it, but it will <i>not</i> take on any new responsibility. 
+   *
+   * <b>Exiting</b>
+   *
+   * A cancel()ed should complete its responsibilities as soon as possible.
+   * Canceling is not only a request to stop taking on new responsibility, and to
+   * complete its current responsibility. Its also a request to complete dealing with its 
+   * current responsibilities, quickly when possible.
