To answer my own question, looks like it's designed that way: http://java.sun.com/javase... Doesn't make up for the fact that it's a terrible design.
JAXP's XML parsers (Xerces apparently) close the input stream when they're done parsing? That's totally fercockted. Why?
Ahhhrrrg. Anyone using macports w/ x86_64 binaries? Looks like a PITA to get working. Building macports from source - no thanks.

Choose Your Own Adventure - http://samizdat.cc/cyoa/
As a child of the 80s, the Choose Your Own Adventure books were a fixture of my rainy afternoons. My elementary school library kept a low, fairly unmaintained-looking shelf of them hidden in one of its back corners. Whether this non-marquee placement was an attempt by the librarians to deemphasize the books in favor of ‘serious’ (children’s) literature or was simply my good luck I still haven’t worked out. But it meant there was a place that I could retreat to and dive into unfamiliar worlds without distraction.
