[cgma-dev] [Fwd: PyTAPS Multiple Geometry Load Failure]

[Tim Tautges]

CGM uses a number of singleton classes, and here I'm taking thread safe to mean you can have multiple instances (I guess 
they could be in the same thread, for that matter).  Because of the statics used in singletons, you can't use two copies 
of cgm simultaneously.
