Hi Scott and Ian,

Thank you very much. That worked. But I'm still not clear why I need to use
the belongs_to relationship when the affiliation_id is directly available in
the People table. I can understand that if I had to pick up the
affiliation_description from the Affiliation table, I would have to use the
belongs_to relationship, but why I need to do that for the affiliation_id
also is not so obvious.
