I'm sorry you feel that way, but I don't think I was out of line. I
did point to several informative sources of documentation, and
described some of the problems (but by no means all) with the
person's schema and how to solve them. If you think the database
design in question is *not* ignorant database design, please do
explain why, but on technical grounds. (Ignorance, of course, is not
a sin.)

Alexander.
