    Thread t1 = new Thread(pGroup, this);
    System.out.println("Starting " + t1.getName());
    t1.start();

    Thread t2 = new Thread(cGroup, this);
    System.out.println("Starting " + t2.getName());
    t2.start();

    System.out.println("Active threads in \"" + pGroup.getName() + "\" = "
        + pGroup.activeCount());
