[LRUG] Rails schema line order changing

Step one: Whoever yells loudest gets to keep their database
Step two: Everyone else does rails db:reset on their development databases,
and possibly just db:schema:load on their test ones if you have seed data
you don't want in your test db.

The key is that db:schema:load reads from the schema file as-is, rather
than reading from the migrations and re-constructing the schema from the
database.
