require 'active_record'
module Wlog
# An active record that stores keys with values. Keys and values are strings.
# convert as you need them.
#
# Note the behaviour on this; it's exactly like a ruby hash, so if you store
# a string 'jon' as a key with value '12', and then you store 'jon' with value
# '42', when looking up 'jon' you will retrieve only the latter (42).
