  # Active Records implement validation by overwriting Base#validate (or the variations, +validate_on_create+ and

  #
  #   class Person < ActiveRecord::Base

  #           errors.add("membership_discount", "has expired")
  #         end

  #       def validate_on_update
  #         errors.add_to_base("No changes have occurred") if unchanged_attributes?

  #   person.errors.count                 # => 2
  #   person.errors.on "last_name"        # => "can't be empty"
  #   person.errors.on "phone_number"     # => "has invalid format"
