Hi,

The complexity of using Lambda for cleaning functions are too hard to 
explain in depth
in the context of an example.  A more conservative approach is to show 
using a static nested
class.  A lambda savvy developer can correctly determine how to avoid 
the pitfalls, and others
should stick to the static nested class.
