+  A "meta" file is kept alongside the data file. This file serves two purpose.
+  The first purpose is to track the number of rows in the table. The second 
+  purpose is to determine if the table was closed properly or not. When the 
+  meta file is first opened it is marked as dirty. It is opened when the table 
+  itself is opened for writing. When the table is closed the new count for rows 
+  is written to the meta file and the file is marked as clean. If the meta file 
+  is opened and it is marked as dirty, it is assumed that a crash occured. At 
+  this point an error occurs and the user is told to rebuild the file.
+  A rebuild scans the rows and rewrites the meta file. If corruption is found
+  in the data file then the meta file is not repaired.
 
-  No attempts at durability are made. You can corrupt your data. A repair
-  method was added to repair the meta file that stores row information,
