A SQL database is meant to store data so it's probably worth keeping the
information in a clean format so PHP, Perl, or other languages can access and
make use of the information. If you store them individually you can define the
values as integers, rather than rigging a text string that has to be
manipulated
later. I'd rather have SQL do the work for me, and simply add, edit, or delete
the information. It would seem like more work in the long run to work with a
string of numbers, than setting up the table columns once and creating a
function to add or update the table.

Short, sweet, and to the point. Thanks much Tom.
