The temporary table is visible only to the current connection, and will be 
deleted automatically when the connection is closed. This means that two 
different connections can both use the same temporary table name without 
conflicting with each other or with an existing table of the same name. 
(The existing table is hidden until the temporary table is deleted.) From 
MySQL 4.0.2 on, you must have the CREATE TEMPORARY TABLES privilege to be 
able to create temporary tables.
