Delay and threads question

I want an object to do something every 10 minutes.
I have the following code:
startTimer
| delay |
delay _ Delay forMilliseconds: 10 * 60 * 1000.
[delay wait. true] whileTrue: [self save]
My question: is it save safe to call self startTimer from initialize?
If so, why doesn't the process that called "new" get trapped?
If not, how should startTimer be called?
Many thanks,
Derek
