      Thread.sleep(long ms ) throws a IllegalArgumentException when you pass a
      negative value .

      This is not documented in the javadoc for Thread.sleep(long ms ) while
      it is specified for Thread.sleep(long ms, int nanosec )

      Thread.sleep(long) should declare that it throws an
      IllegalArgumentException the same way that Thread.sleep(long, int) does.
