Hashtable get() and put() are synchronized, so the read/write operations are
thread safe.  No need to have separate synchronized blocks.

The only problem I saw was the incrCounter method.  It increments and resests
the counter field.  This needs to be synchronized.  The easiest way would be to
make the incrCounter() method synchronized.
