I can't find anything in the documentation in PostgreSQL on how to make
a stored procedure return a result set. AFAIK it cannot and then it is not
really fair to claim that pgsql has stored procedures.

Some other goodies from the article :

"PostgreSQL provides support for queries and data manipulation
statements that span multiple database instances."

"Both MySQL and PostgreSQL are multithreaded servers"

But I agree, this author is a joke.
