Hello,

  I have a feeling this isn't going to make much sense, but I'm gonig to try
  anyway.

  What I'd like to do is be able to refer to an outer-SELECT from an
  inner-SELECT. I hope this makes sense.

  I need to be able to refer to the row that's being processed in a SELECT. I'm
  going to use the idea of 'this' referring to the row that's currently being
  processed. Here's the example of what I'd like:

  SELECT
    building_id,
    num_buildings,
    (
      SELECT count( building_id )
      FROM   building_portals
      WHERE  building_id = THIS.building_id
    )
  FROM buildings;

  Am I making things too complicated, and if so will somebody *PLEASE* tell me
  the easier way to do this. Thanks.

-- Dave
