Oh, no! Please don't tell me I also can't use BLOB in PostgreSQL.
Surely there is a way to backup and restore the *whole* database?
I've tried creating the database manually and then
$ droplang plpgsql foo
before the restore, but that didn't work either. The language is, of
course, created in template1.
I'm stumped. :-( I can backup my db, but I can't restore it. Not much
use, is it...?

TIP 2: you can get off all lists at once with the unregister command
(send "unregister YourEmailAddressHere" to [EMAIL PROTECTED])
