I thought about the synchronization issue.  It looks like this class is not multiple-threads safe, and thus the upper layer will take care of the synchronization.  So I did not add synchronization in this class update.

Cleanable.clean() will work one time only, no matter how many time it is called.  But it looks like better to make a change here.
