Excellent points.  Thank you.  In addition the stuff we were already
worried about, this seems more than enough justification to abandon
the idea of putting "split quotes" into the statistics db.

So Dave, and anyone else, it seems to me that we should just go with
the "split quotes go in the split" approach, and treat the financial
database as a completely separate issue.  Does anyone have any
objections to this?  If not, then unless someone else wants to do it,
I'll start working on this, and fixing up the file read code to
properly convert old "zero-price" splits -> split quotes immediately.

Speak now...

Thanks
