@@ -5,18 +5,13 @@ This is an example of how to return a 10 INPUT request to the client and
 retrieve their response by parsing the URL query string.
 
 This example stores the guestbook inside of a persistent sqlite database.
-Because each request will run inside of a separate thread, we must create a new
-connection object inside of the request handler instead of re-using a global
-database connection. This thread-safety can be disabled in sqlite3 by using the
-check_same_thread=False argument, but then it's up to you to ensure that only
-connection request is writing to the database at any given time.
