Re: [0.0] Re: [0.2] getting transactions to work

the idea behind persistent connections is to simply allow you to open a
connection, that is persistent, ie, it's there for other db functions to use
and that the app doesn't go through the process of opening up a new
connection. with a persistent connection, the app essentially looks to see
if an existing connection has already been open that's available for use.
