OT: CodeIgniter Routing

[Tom Haws]

Yeah.  Keep researching CodeIgniter tutorials, because ideally, you
wouldn't ever need to use routes.php unless you had a need for an alias or
some other special occasion.

On another note, it would be more conventional to talk to your database
tables in model files and then call model functions in your controllers.
Again, I recall watching a short CodeIgniter tutorial video that really
helped clarify this.
