I _could_ do it on paper if I wanted to.  I took a few accounting
classes, though I am sure that I'd have to look some things up again.
In fact, I do, because I've found that I'm not recording everything in
the best manner possible, but that's easy enough for me to fix.

What I truly want to do is have the accounting system mostly be
self-maintaining.  GC brings me awfully close to that, IMHO, but I know
at least two or three people that when they see GC they run.  :-)

Abstraction is the key!
