I agree with what you are saying fundamentally. However, I'm also a firm believer in "eating your dog food<http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eat_one%27s_own_dog_food>" when it comes to building software. I would like to build something incrementally and use it while I'm building it. In order for this to happen I need to be able to persist "business" objects in the application I'm building. The application I'm building is straight forward (simple), and it's a way for me to explore elephant. Aaron
