Ooo.  Another thought.  I noticed that you are doing a transaction 
without using the "rescue" catch.  If something else goes wrong, besides 
validation, you will never know what happened!  :)

So in that case, I prefer a sprinkle of your code with mine.  Well, to 
be honest I probably lifted this off of one of the pages in my Agile Web 
Development with Rails book.  So I won't take any credit for this.  I 
wish I could!  Cheers.
