How can you get pimped? Remember, closing twice is OK. If it doesn't close,
then I think everyone's gonna end up writing
flushOut out
shutdownWrite out
close out
In fact, I am a bit worried because if you don't do the flush before the
shutdown, then the close is going to try to flush and get an exception.
