I was going to do that but i still haven't quire wrapped my mindaround mix-ins. I decided on a container model and just declared adatabase handle as an instance variable.
The thing that insterests me is the choice to write a module asopposed to an object.  One day I will figure out when to write amodule instead of an object. For now I am just writing objects andpretending that ruby is java or python. I figure that's good enoughtill I learn more about mixins.
