Hey RVince

Creating tables at runtime sounds really messy - have you considered
other options?

For example, using serialize in your models and storing attributes as
a hash:

class Product

  serialize :attributes

end

@product = Product.new :name => "Canon Ixus", :category =>
"Camera", :attributes => { :price => $150, :battery_life => "8
hours", ... etc... }

Maybe this 'virtual class' approach isn't best for your app but
perhaps there are other, similar approaches?
