"Inside COM" is what I read. I used to think it is a great book. But it
being created. I guess someone who doesn't think about the internals
it is just going to leave you grasping at straws. Notice our lengthy
discussion. Only toward the very end was it thought to explain the
hidden window and windowproc. "Inside COM" never explains it from what
I remember.

The literature is correct in this regard.
Just to butt in, what literature?
Whichever literature claims that only one thread can belong to any given
STA.
I'm in the beginning of learning COM programming, got Essential COM
and ATL internals but I need something much simpler to start with.
The following books are often recommended:
"Inside COM"
http://www.amazon.com/Inside-Microsoft-Programming-Dale-Rogerson/dp/1572313498
"Beginning ATL COM Programmming"
http://www.amazon.com/Beginning-Atl-Com-Programming/dp/1861000111
"Professional ATL COM Programming "
http://www.amazon.com/Professional-Atl-Programming-Richard-Grimes/dp/B0000B0T0K
I haven't personally read any of these.

With sufficient thrust, pigs fly just fine. However, this is not
necessarily a good idea. It is hard to be sure where they are going to
land, and it could be dangerous sitting under them as they fly
overhead. -- RFC 1925
