Michael and Alex, thanks for the replies.  Your examples helped point out
my misunderstandings: 1) Asset accounts track the true value of the
property irrespective of the Liabilities (loans) that you might have open
against them, and 2) Equity is just a grab-all account class you use to
seed the accounts correctly when starting out.

Yes, I am interested.  I'm sure I could learn a few things from this.

Thanks,

Randall
