This is the intersection of the decision.  I still am no sure if that
simple flatfile dream of one-instance data can be done.  I think I am
going to have to try it a number of times becuase I dont see a certain
answer, yes or no.

Can you may be explain more what you do with your case that you dump SQL
to flatfile?  I don't see why that would ever be a benefit and am
interested in understanding that.

I think I am worried about using SQL a bit because it is not something
that I think I can edit so quickly as I do text files.  And also like
you others, losing data when things are corrupted.
