Ruby on Rails

Hey Dave,

I was "baby sitting" my 14-yo granddaughter for a week, so that kept
me away from my project. Thinking about my project during some idle
time today, I realized I should put my setup-code in the Vendor-
controller. As I was about to that, I reread your post to and
discovered you had provided an answer buried in a lot of distracting
verbiage:

> you're putting controller logic in your view

That's the simple and direct answer to my question. I appreciate you
providing it and wish that it had been provided as the first line of
your response. Nevertheless, thank you for confirming what I thought
about today.

Best wishes,
Richard
