     I wanted to write a specs2 unit test that proves a function works concurrently. I tried writing a unit test 
     to prove that Futures run concurrently (not always sequentially), just for fun. I ran the test below, 
     expecting count to equal 1, but it always executed the futures in order, even though C1 takes the longest
     time. I realised, I need to go back to school and learn how futures are executed.

      val decodedStr = new String(Base64.getDecoder().decode(base64EncodedStr), "ASCII")

      decodedStr ==== originalStr
