And now for the universal DBA answer - it depends. There are cases
where that information needs to be normalized to another table. A
person could have a billing address, a shipping address, a vacation
address, etc. Or the application may need to store multiple addresses
over time. The same person could have a home phone, office phone, fax,
mobile phone, pager, etc.
