Hi Brent,
Sort of yes, more or less, but upstreams errors from my OGR driver are somehow stopping it.
The main issue is with using a spatial db driver, on a non-spatial db - OGR wants to read the
geometry_columns table but it doesn't exist.  That's the error that's stopping me.  So I'll chalk it
up to a bad driver and work on fixing it that way.

Thanks!
Tyler
