Learn to write your own damn queries or even better - buy a book on SQL...
Personally: (being a newbie with an interest in developing a strong rdms
skillset) I've enjoyed
following threads like these. Even when the questions (to some) seems overly
simplistic, the
courteous respondents often share insightful solutions or nuances that are not found
in an "off
the self" SQL book.
However, if questions like these are *really* off-topic for the pgsql-sql I
would be interested in
knowing what kind of threads are acceptable and on-topic for this list.
Also, if there are other mailing lists (pg or other) that are better suited for
threads like this,
I would appreciate learning of them.

I would like to say that I have found the level of patience and help
offered by the members of the mailing lists to be a key factor in my
choice to use Postgres. And I feel that the response above would have
been the sort of thing that would have turned me off., even if it was
not in response to one of my own posts. Sometimes I may not understand
the questions being asked or the answers being given but it sure is
great to be able to search and find them later when you are the one
hitting that same wall. If someone on a list like this rubs you the
wrong way, personally I would ignore them, hence I expect to get zero
responses to this! ;)
Just my 2c this is a great resource and I would hope all feel as welcome
here as I have,
Oisin
