title: Does it make sense to have static methods in stateless ejbs?
body: <p>Stateles ejbs are intended to be idempotent and have no memory of previous user interactions. That sounds like a static method to me.</p>
  
  <p>so
  instead of having</p>
  
  <pre><code> public void save(Entity e) { em.persist(e); }
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>is it safe to have</p>
  
  <pre><code> public static void save(Entity e) { em.persist(e); }
  </code></pre>
  
  <p>inside an EJB?</p>
