No where have I suggested that it is just cause to go off and write
something totally different.  If I thought this, I would not be on this
list: I would just do it.

Correct.  It's straight-forward stuff, but, in my estimation, 
quite a bit of work for someone who is in college.

I consider magic, in this context, to be anything above and beyond what
is clearly detailed in the SQL specifications.  I do not intend for this
to be deragatory.
