I guess I'm just old fashion. I learned with the terms inner and outer joins, 
and I conceptually in struggling with this left/right join stuff -- I thought 
the order it joins the tables was simply a matter of optimizer logic.

Can someone give me a rule of thumb in understanding what this left/right 
join business is vs inner/outer joins?
