No, that is an example of "It is a dog therefor it is an animal" is not 
the same as "It is an animal therefor it is a dog". Also it depends on 
what the writers were meaning when they used the term "connection."

The fact is, sqlite LastInsertID IS reliable. It will return the id of 
the last record inserted in the table. Which is not quite the same as 
"the id of the record that I just inserted in the table".


I just thought of another (underline) possible way to do this. Include a 
timestamp field in the record set by the program and match on that. 
Maybe. I don't know, it would depend on how accurate sqlite is with 
timestamps as they are stored, like almost everything else, as strings.
