Spiffy; works fine with VLC for me.  I like the rotating G.

One data design note -- I don't think you should normally give length to
StringCol (i.e., you should use TEXT).  Fixed-length fields are a relic
of the 80's; modern databases can and do deal pretty well with arbitrary
length text fields.  Except MySQL doesn't allow indexes on them.  Dumb
MySQL.  In fact, if I remember correctly (and I may not), many databases
will be more space-efficient with arbitrary length fields, because they
don't preallocate the full length, but they frequently do for fixed
length fields.

Also, less typing!
