Go right ahead. You can "build" your outline from anything you darned well
feel like. As long as you can answer each of the Four Big Questions
immediately, it makes no difference at all how the data source is
implemented behind the scenes. Just be aware that any item you submit in
response to one the Big Questions can be returned to you for another
question about it (e.g. "Has this item any sub-items?") so whatever you
submit as an item needs to be something that allows you to answer this
question. See my earlier note (about two weeks ago) on this topic. m.
