Yes, I did. I couldn't turn it up in Google, either. I did find a long
thread where you discuss the issue. Reading that, I found
justifications for having a constant hash value, and having immutable
attributes - but I've known about those for a long time.. Neither of
these constitutes an immutable instance.

Could I get you to recap the reason?

      thanks,
