I don't think this is so "sucky", it is kind of clean to have a string representation of the actions (although the default serialization form is not actually human readable so it doesn't buy you that much). And if you really want you don't need to add the field, you could use ObjectInputStream.readFields() and ObjectOutputStream.putFields(). But I don't think adding the field and keeping it up to dat when readObject/writeObject() is called is so bad. Cheers, Mark
