[AccessD] On DB Bloat, Bad DB Design, and various

Yup, they are perfect candidates for colbyization. The sad thing is
beginning coders take that stuff to be gospel. A lot of it is truly awful.

Ahhh, the summer internships.  To be frank, their example code pretty much
sucks.  Ditto for their example databases, at least as far as structure
goes.

Remember speed govenors on cars learning drivers used to have before they
were finally given their license? Maybe a nanny screen(s) that pop up saying
in effect here is a better way to build this table, query, etc.. Kind of
just-in-time lessons. OH, and Microsoft should totally clean up their
example code because that is where everyone starts when they begin to
explore VBA.
