I vaguely recollect that Solomon is a full featured Accounting System
built in one of the datbase languages available from mdbs, Inc., of
Lafayette, Indiana.  They make the Guru Expert System, Knowledgeman,
and what they call a "post relational" system called (I think) mdbs.

"Post relational" seems to mean they have a relational language overlay
on a network model implementation, so the administrator can get high
performance by setting up certain commonly used access paths, yet the
users can still write the occasional bass ackwards query.
