Hi Sam,

I have used fowlers ghost lazy load pattern in another project that used a
domain model with DataMappers rather than ActiveRecords. In that project, we
used lazy load everywhere and this worked well. However, this only seems to
be compatible with data mappers and no examples are provided for
implementing lazy load when using an ActiveRecord model.

My current way of lazy loading is to expose methods on each ActiveRecord
that retrieve the associated data...is that what you meant by lazy loading
or did you have some other method?

Thanks,

Jason
