[Dev-flock] new fixture error

[Daniel Ring]

Did this not work for you?  Even after './manage.py reset db'?

"For some reason, './manage.py loaddata database/db/fixtures/santa.json'
fails with an error about a missing article.  If you run the command 3
or 4 times, it should eventually succeed, and this is okay, because the
fixtures have unique ids, so they will just overwrite old entries rather
than adding duplicates."
