Richard,

Thanks, a followup.

I believe this will not work (novice, so take w/ grain of salt).

I tried the following:

chlamy_est=> CREATE VIEW contig_x_vw AS SELECT contig_id FROM clone_contig, clone 
WHERE 
chlamy_est-> clone_contig.clone_id = clone.clone_id AND read='x';
CREATE
chlamy_est=> CREATE VIEW contig_y_vw AS SELECT contig_id FROM clone_contig, clone 
WHERE 
chlamy_est-> clone_contig.clone_id = clone.clone_id AND read='y';
CREATE
chlamy_est=> SELECT contig_id FROM contig_x_vw, contig_y_vw WHERE contig_x_vw.clone_id 
= 
chlamy_est-> contig_y_vw.clone.id;
ERROR:  Column reference "contig_id" is ambiguous

If I understand the logic, you SELECT:
        all contig_ids where where clone.read = 'x' (VIEW contig_x_vw)
        all contig_ids where where clone.read = 'y' (VIEW contig_y_vw)
        find isect of these two wehere their clone_ids are same


However, their clone_ids will never be the same as in the example.
cloneA.project=cloneB.project 
cloneA.plate=cloneB.plate 
cloneA.row=cloneB.row 
cloneA.col=cloneB.col 


TABLE clone      'A'    'B'

clone_id        12018   12019   
project         894     894
plate           27      27
row             G       G       
col             9       9
read            x       y
