Failed experiments

Not my most triumphant update, but ... sometimes you eat the bear, and sometimes the bear eats you.
Today I did not merge the resourceful routes experiment. Apparently I have strong opinions on what a URL should look like for various bits of functionality, and the people who designed Rails disagree with me in numerous ways, large and small. This quite possibly means I'm wrong :D but I've decided to stick with my preferred URLs, at least for now, and the Rails 'resource' helper could not be bent to my will without making the routes file more confusing than just hand-rolling them as I was up until now.
