John:  I'm surprised when you talk of "tightening" up the code that
you still included the original "JOIN" command.   It's been probably
over a decade since I've used JOIN, INTERSECT, SUBTRACT or any
of those other old legacy commands and have instead gone to true SQL
syntax to do the same thing.    

Are these considered obsolete commands?   Or still fully supported with
no chance of ever going away in some future RBase version?
