You can figure this out, but I don't know of a nice clean way of doing
it. Check out the pg_group table. There's got to be a 'value in
array' type function that could make that an easy select.

You don't want the intersection of permissions? I'd create a new user
account: I don't know that there's a way to rescind privs that have
been granted to you. -sc
