RMI seems like overkill when all you want to do is send a simple message
from one system to the other.

Although RMI does have the advantage of making it easier to expand the
functionality in the future.

One thing to keep in mind about RMI ... you need to keep track of the
object definitions you are sending across the wire ... as if the
definitions are mismatched, the program will probably fail.
