Hi, I'm new to Catalyst, just went through the Tutorial, everything worked 
fine. But for my reporting application (part of a bigger application where CRUD 
will be more often), I need to run some complicated querries. I did find the 
"Arbitray SQL" article in DBIx's FAQ, but I don't even know how to get to DBIx, 
if that's the right way, more specifically, 

Is it possible to get the database handle and run SQL directly as in DBI? I 
read that from Schema I can get its storage, which is the db handle. But from a 
Controller, how do I get the schema object, or the db handle? If the DBIx is 
the correct way to go (which seems a lengthy way to "just" run a query), do I 
do $c->model('Some::Model')->resultset....?

Thanks.

Z.
