This leaves me with the challenge of writing a c/s address book for my
family. The Wolfe Doctrine (why the hell write it when someone else
already has?) has exceptions, as in, it'll be fun/a learning experience.

Requirements:

- postgres

- tcl/tk

- simple enough so it doesn't become a career

- complex enough so it's useful

- multiuser (individual and group "ownership" of addresses)

- able to do address labels from lists

- able to print 5.5" X 8.5" Franklin-Covey "Classic" alphabetized pages

My problem is, as I start to analyze the address schema, I see
complication piled on complexity. Multiple numbers, metafiles of number
types, splitting records (divorces etc) ....

Better to just do a damned flat file with a fixed number of bins.
