I dunno about BLOBS, but CLOBs can (at least under Oracle, not that this 
is a requirement or anything).

Anyhoo, that's might generous of you to offer, but unfortunately, this 
project is no where near organized enough for me to have well defined 
categories (or anything else) yet.  Also, this is for work, so i don't 
think you'd want to be volunteering your time for something that is 
going into a company.

thanks for offering though, much appreciated.
