    <remarks>
      <para>
        <see cref="T:System.Threading.ThreadState" />
defines the set of possible execution states for threads. Once a thread is
created, it is in one or more of these states until it terminates. Not all
combinations of <see langword="ThreadState" /> values are valid; for example,
a thread cannot be in both the <see cref="F:System.Threading.ThreadState.Stopped" /> and <see cref="F:System.Threading.ThreadState.Unstarted" />
states.</para>
      <para>The following table shows the actions that cause a thread to
   change state.</para>

      <para>In addition to the states noted above, there is also the <see cref="F:System.Threading.ThreadState.Background" /> state, which indicates whether the thread is
running in the background or foreground.</para>
      <para>The current state of a thread can be retrieved from the <see cref="P:System.Threading.Thread.ThreadState" /> property,
whose value is a combination of the <see cref="T:System.Threading.ThreadState" />
values. Once a thread has reached the <see cref="F:System.Threading.ThreadState.Stopped" /> state, it cannot change to any other state. </para>
