	Using a Swing Worker Thread
		The only difference is that after the worker thread has run for about two seconds, it blocks until the user has responded to a Continue/Cancel modal dialog.
		This example demonstrates an idiom common to many worker threads: If the worker runs into an unexpected condition it may need to block until it has alerted the user or collected more information from the user with a modal dialog.
		Doing so is a little complex because the dialog needs to be shown on the event-dispatching thread, and the worker thread needs to be blocked until the user has dismissed the modal dialog.
