Absolutely right, my controllers are much, much too heavy. This all came
from "learning as I went" and I distinctly remember the point at which I
gave up trying to put business logic in the model. At the time there
seemed to be minimal if any examples that illustrated the model being
anything other than an adaptor for DBIx::Class::Schema so I just figured
I was mistaken in my attempt to do so.

So could I ask, now I know a little more than I did then, Does everyone
here subclass DBIx::Class::Resultset (a-la
http://catalyst.perl.org/calendar/2007/16) for their business logic
specific methods? (Well those that use DBIx::Class as their model
anyway)

Thanks for the Help Matt, it's certainly made me think.
