   Inside the handler for app.post('/api/project/:id?', ...) in butter/cornfield/app.js I replaced

   doc.save();
   res.json({ error: 'okay', project: proj });
   

   with

   doc.save(function (err) {
     if ( !err ) {
       res.json({ error: 'okay', project: proj });
     } else {
       res.json( {error: 'internal db error' }, 500 );
     }
   });
   

   to fail better. (banksJeremy/butter@4eececb)

   This works, and now I'm confused why the failure left a connection open. I'd think that .save() would be async and return instantly, so res.json(...) would be called and close the connection in either case. Maybe it's not async? Weird.
