Lee, I posted xrdb scripts for a trivial (phone#) and a less trivial (10 computer systems) example. Since no one posted RM's equivalent script to verify your assertion that RM is the most general/superior data model, I posted RM's myself. Wouldn't you agree when comparing RM to an unfamiliar data methodology, one ought to start out simpler rather than more complex? Since the initial trivial example didn't show RM's superiority, I am evolving the initial example. In fact, how data models handle unexpected/new data (as in AI type applications) is related to that model's generality and is relevant (see recent thread title "Database Schema For Univesal Usage").
