the world is just a flat database

Clint Pearson created a flat database project over at CodePlex.  Initially I wasn't sold on this but then after a few pokes at the source code, I realized it is actually fairly powerful.  Clint implemented a table solution for FlatDB which makes it far more powerful than a typical single serializable class.

Using and saving are dirt simple too!

var db = FlatDatabase("flat.db");
db.Submit();
