/**
 * <p>Example of removing yourself from the history stack after forwarding to
 * another activity. This can be useful, for example, to implement
    a confirmation dialog before the user goes on to another activity -- once the
    user has confirmed this operation, they should not see the dialog again if they
go back from it.</p>

<p>Note that another way to implement a confirmation dialog would be as
an activity that returns a result to its caller.  Either approach can be
useful depending on how it makes sense to structure the application.</p>
