yes  that database class from Adam;s book was what I had in mind.
I even took it another step and used that static property technique 
within all classes which might use the database class.

So in effect, the class only requires() the database class and 
instantiates it if hasn't already. If instantiated, the database class 
only connects if it hasn't already.
I'm liking PHP 5 so much I wrote a Haiku.

Cascading Database
Requires one connection
Slash Dot here we come.

Just wish more web hosts upgraded to 5  and offered Postgresql. Guess 
it's just a matter of time.
