The app allows an "anonymous" user to have multiple reviews of a
business, so a DB level constraint probably isn't appropriate. But
regardless, my question is about what I can/can't expect from AR with
respect to transactions/validations.  If validations aren't within the
transaction they're not useful.  Since I don't believe the Rails folks
are stupid, I'm trying to figure out what I'm doing wrong here.

Thanks,
