I only used one in that case because it was not multi threaded. However, I
did introduce a worker thread which had a third connection to the database
with it's own TIB_Session. This worked most of the time but I got some
funny errors that I did not have time to research (most likely my own error
since it was my first attempt at multi threading), so I brought it back into
the main thread.

Cheerio
