I get the feeling you're telling me I cant do a SELECT and have it passed to
a stored procedure, right?  Hmmm.  That makes me less enamored of stored
procedures.  I thought there was a way to let them masquerade as tables,
rather than having to explicitly call them.  Because you're right, if that
limitation exists, then triggers are pretty much the only way to go to
encapsulate the database to the level that I was proposing.
