Rob,

   I'm in the upper left corner of the US so I'll have to pass on your kind
offer.

   Germane to your fundamental concern, over the years I've found that my
first pass at a database schema is usually sub-optimal. The first design is
based on initial assumptions, and further deep thinking can bring up issues
not recognized before.

   I'm sure you will evolve a schema that works well for your needs and
avoids hidden problems.
