This example shows the difficulty of doing this in D. You can't 
really have something like `p.Name == "James"`, or `p.Age < 21` 
translate to SQL properly without language changes, which I 
believe Walter or Andrei were against. This has been the key 
problem when things like Linq to Sql for D have been brought up 
before.
