I'm just starting out using postgresql in specific and sql in general.

I have a table some of whose fields may not be filled in a normal
INSERT, but may be needed at some future time.

I am aware that the whole are of NULLs is somewhat controversial, but
unsure if this means I should implement these in my tables.

I am driving the databases through perl DBI.
