true, also, I was saying if you get to a page underneath, such as in a
search for "alter database" you end up here:
http://www.postgresql.org/docs/9.1/interactive/sql-alterdatabase.html
where there no good way to know where you are in the chapter hierarchy.
Most pages have something to help you like:
2.4. Populating a Table With Rows
http://www.postgresql.org/docs/9.1/interactive/tutorial-populate.html
