Wanna bet?

I have heard some atrocious and perverted attempts at both
MySQL (micesql, my sequel, etc) and PostgreSQL, but then
again I am an Aussie and live is Orstralia (.AU) where we speak
Strine (Australian).

Which brings up the old Sequel vs S Q L. (Dont go here)

The people who have the most problems are non-technical.
Our previous Business Development Manager almost choked
on PostgreSQL when he first came across it. He was reading
for a presentation and did not ask first. So when it came
to say the word it was 'Postgrrrr....mumble'. Luckily it
was not in front of a customer :-)

Anyway... Love it or hate it: Postgres is what we use
internally and Postgres Q L in front of customers.
