I take it you need a way to scrub your data in various databases, not
just pgsql?  I'm not sure there is a simple SQL standard way.  It's
likely that this one time job might require various non-standard ways
of scrubbing your data this one time.    You're gonna have to figure
out how to make databases other than pgsql happy without me, the only
one I'm even a little familiar with is Oracle, and my oracle-fu is
rather rusty after a three year or so lay off from it.
