Ah. Gotcha. Thanks. I didn't know you could use a single double
quotation mark in a query -- I thought like in most languages that you
needed two of them for it to be valid.
But there are two of them : ' and ' makes ''. If you use only one psql/parser 
will complain.

Maybe *health* is a column name somewhere ? In this case it should be
written :
"health" <> '' (i.e. comparison between the value of column "health" and the
literal value '')
'health' is one of the accepted values of the page table's
"Classification" column.

Many thanks,

-David
