I thought about that, but other than style, is there any advantage to one technique 
over the other?  Database connections aren't free, but neither are lists and arrays...

Thanks for all the responses!

Personally, I think I would run the first query until it's through, saving
the data in whatever format you want, a list or an array, and then go
through and do the second set of queries.  But that's just me.

Another poster mentioned that you can get multiple handles from one call
of ns_db gethandle.
