Fair enough by me, it was the first tool I came across and
it seems to do an OK job. If you know anything better that
would be OK to use. Or are we going to be really hacky
an input raw sql? 

It actually turned out to be easier to import the pfaf DB 
by using raw SQL, about 4K worth of create table statements!
