Rails - Feb 2008 - nil object error for "rake db:migrate"

I''m going to start removing relationships and data-entry during the 
migration, but where''s this nil object coming from?

Is it because of the relationship, or is there something wrong with the 
way data is entered during the migration?  I''m not seeing what would 
introduce the nil object :(
