Re: objct cycles - the DESTORY route is really hard to get right so I
would encourage you Kris to go for the "parent object knows about the
relationships" or (my solution) - punt on making children know about the
parents, and force any script that wants to know about this to do its own
bookeeping ...


Most scripts probably wont need to go child--> parent as to get to the
child they must have gone through the parent...
