thanks for the correction. Lazyness is always awkward.

One step further would be
protected void finalize() throws Throwable {
try {
// your code / print outs
}
catch ( Throwable e ) {
// we are lucky having our own exception caught and we get feedback
e.printStackTrace();
}
// this is very important, never forget it. The super class could free
memory of native code
super.finalize();}
}

You too!
