This is a very good valid point that I completely failed to consider =>
Chris, to answer your last question, yes, it _would_ work, but as Mark
points out, it's probably not a very good idea. Still cool, but hey,
you can tell I don't work in a production environment =>
The other method I sent will reduce the size (and maintenance cost) of
your index.php page, while being fast (as Mark says).

This is probably "not a good idea" if the data is mostly static. There's
no
real reason to use the power of a db engine for something this trivial,
and
static serving will be faster than a DB system.
