  rescue
    #needs to be less crude
    #intention here is to trap RAILS failure when it cannot find/build an accessor method
    #for a class property
    #this will be the case with IAB because it only builds hashes that have values
    #so properties in the data model that do not have values in an instance record
    #in the DB will not result in an entry to the hash that defines the instance and hence
    #RAILS will not be able to build a method via it's method missing with more sophisication
