Yes. Versions of MySQL previous to version 4 (or is it 4.1?) do not
support subqueries. Most web hosts still only offer version 3.x of

stipulate that the Updater is supported through Apache 2.0.52, yet the

Actually, I believe the challenge was to show a situation wherein
Evaluate() was an absolutely necessary tool.
The brackets came into the picture as a solution to avoid using
Evaluate(). Things that can now be expressed in bracketed expressions
used to demand the Evaluate() function to resolve
I just wanted to add that for the purpose of evaluate() bracket notation and
dot notation are pretty much equal. Neither of them are using an evaluate
function.
I believe the spirit of the challenge, as Jared opened with, was to show a
situation were evaluate() was the only way to achieve
