Michael,

Never heard that word, but probably means that the database observes *strict* adherence to 3rd normal form. As the old saying goes, "no real database can function in 3rd normal form." Some denorm usually has to occur to help performance.

Just tell him that you are actually beyond hypernormal into theoritical hyperrecord supercombinations in some parts of the database to strictly control space allocation and see what he says.

I just made that up.
