There's probably an obvious answer for this, but I couldn't see it in the 
docs.  What's the simplest way to concatenate multiple same-column values 
in SQL?

For example, suppose I have table foo (key integer, id integer, entry 
varchar) with data

        key     id      entry
        1       1       "Four score and seven years ago our fathers "
        1       2       "brought forth on this continent, a new nation, "
        1       3       "conceived in Liberty, and dedicated to the "
        1       4       "proposition that all men are created equal."

and I want to produce the following result:

"Four score and seven years ago our fathers brought forth on this continent, 
a new nation, conceived in Liberty, and dedicated to the proposition that 
all men are created equal."

I know this could be done writing a plpgsql function, but it seems so basic, 
I thought there might be something I'm overlooking.

TIA.
