people table like this

id int not null auto_increment,
type varchar not null
/* common attributes */

name varchar not null,
email  varchar not null,
/* attributes for type=Customer */

balance decimal(10,2),
/* attributes for type=Employee */

=================
model
-
class person < activerecord::Base
end

class Customer < Person
end

class Employee < Person
end

============
this is a segnment on 'agile web development with rails'



my silly question is though the autoer note which attribute belong who,
but in the real world, real code, how can I know which is private
attribute for customer or employee?
