Remarks
Enumerating through a collection is intrinsically not a thread-safe procedure. Even when a collection is synchronized, other threads can still modify the collection, which causes the enumerator to throw an exception. To guarantee thread safety during enumeration, you can either lock the collection during the entire enumeration or catch the exceptions resulting from changes made by other threads
Note that when an interface method is explicitly implemented, it is no longer visible as a public member of the class. The only way to access it is through the interface.
