ROFL -- I had some dummy data in there, I was returning 0 regardless of 
anything else!   Seems to work now(just have to clean up):

    79          static final Comparator<Guest> BY_NAME = new 
Comparator<Guest>(){
    80                  public int compare(Guest g1, Guest g2){
    81                          ContactInfo c1 = g1.getContactInfo();
    82                          ContactInfo c2 = g2.getContactInfo();
    83                          System.out.println("******************");
    84                          String s1 = c1.getLastName();
    85                          String s2 = c2.getLastName();
    86                          int foo = s1.compareTo(s2);
    87                          System.out.println(foo);
    88                          return foo;
    89                  }
    90          };

I'd like to put this Comparator into a00720398.util.CollectionUtil and 
still keep the collections in the driver to meet other requirements.

Any pointers as to how to do that?



thanks,
