[AccessD] Normalization discussion

OK, alright!

Point I was making is that you need to consider what could be needed while you
are designing the system, and
Avoid doing something that will cause problems later - 
So open ended rather than only need that 1 entry

If needed you can split off sets of data from the Animal entry later and put
them into additional tables 
The problem comes if you have setup reports etc that only allow 1 incidence of
something that you find can reporting of require multiple entries.

from perfectly normal acquisitions. Most come from rehabbers or rescues. We
don't have exotics. Nothing fancy. :)
