[Openmcl-devel] Bridge and NSTimer

[Phil]

The wrong one? Seriously, I see your point... is creating the timer  
on the main thread (i.e. create a new method to create the timer and  
then call it via  
"performSelectorOnMainThread:withObject:waitUntilDone:") the right  
way to do this or is there a better/alternate way?

Thanks,
Phil
