Since the ArrayLists (plural!) are in the Map, you retrieve them from the Map. The variable in question will not be in scope in another method anyway, so your reasoning is not applicable. It also will hold only /one/ of the Lists; how do you figure on retrieving the others?

And you haven't answered why the map is
Map <Integer, ArrayList <<String>>
instead of
Map <Integer, List <Integer>>
.. Why is it so necessary to store Strings in the List, and ArrayLists in the Map?
