setting vars to null

I apologize but I earlier deleted the message that contained the 
message that one doesn't have to ever ever set local variables to
null...
Well, it is almost true.  In the "for ever" loop (in servers) large arrays
are referenced until method returns.  When the method does not
return - it might leak memory.  

Anyways, my apologies for adding to this non-tomcat and non-servlet
thread.
