If you know you're not going to have more than 255 records in a lookup 
table, it'd make perfect sense to have your PK be a TINYINT instead of 
INT (or any other integer type for that matter)?  By default (I guess 
leftover from Fox thinking), I've always just used INT, but on review it 
doesn't make sense to store bytes you're not gonna use.

Your thoughts?
