I did not select the correct option "Second will always be printed after First", because I knew that it's possible that MyRunnable could be printed after First and only then Second. In other words I took it to mean that "Second will always be printed [u]immediatly[/u] after First", which if you think about, it is very easy to interpret like this because word "after" in many cases implies immediatly after. For example consider this phrase: "After Monday comes Wednesday" - doesn't it sound funny? And even the phrase "Wednesday comes after Monday" sounds a little funny.
Please consider changing the correct option to "Second will never be printed before First". I think this would make the wording less ambigous because both interpretations - "some time before" and "immediately before" would be correct.

Thank you for your suggestion. The option has now been updated.
