I think working with this data will quickly become very difficult to deal
with. For an example, see the latest Peepcode (
http://peepcode.com/products/play-by-play-bernhardt) where they spend half
the screencast trying to figure out what their data looks like (its all
nested Hashes and Arrays, like yours). I think you should turn your data
into instances of some class[es] that defines how to deal with these
relationships in in a humane way.
