I agree.  I don't understand why MySQL has so much support, when it's not 
quite as good as other database packages.  (disclaimer:  MySQL has come a 
long ways in resolving it's deficiencies....).  I particulary don't get it 
when they outright state that the SQL standards will only be followed where 
it suits them....  (It was in their online documentation when I last read 
through it...)

I don't know of any particular hosting company in the city that offers what 
postgres support.  If you become desperate, let me know, I have hosting 
capabilities with the above support, but I've been avoiding offering this 
service.  In the past it was too much maintenance time needed.  On the 
otherhand, if I can help a CLUGGER out.... :)
