Just so you know, PG does have a "GROUP BY" clause. We'll get to some of 
that in the SQL section.

Speaking of, it seems we have quite the mix of people who know much SQL, 
people who know some, and people who are completely new to it. There is 
no possible way I can cover the vast spectrum of SQL that PG has, but 
I'll at least give some interesting problems to solve, and ways to find 
more detailed info when you need it.

Peace,
