Thank you Marnen and Phoenix for your detailed explanations.
I do understand the functionality of the foreign key. I just was not 
sure
whether relying on rails's foreign key functionaliy is good enough and 
there is no need to do it directly on the database, but now reading 
Phoenix's explanation, I understand that as long as only my rails 
application is accessing the database, I can rely on rails's foreign key 
functionality. Of

Thank you again.

Dani
