Thanks, that's what I've decided to do, at least for now. I pass the
Activity to the AsyncTask's constructor, pull out the strings I want
and stick them into member variables for later use by
doInBackground().

I also noticed while looking at the Activity class a little closer
that it's actually a ContextWrapper that contains a Context, so I'm
wondering if the inner Context survives the Activity destruction/
recreation. I'll have to debug a little to see if that's the case.
