And I respectfully agree that I was wrong :) It happens, I think I already
posted a note to the list apologizing and correcting my error.
This is what happens when I post from memory without double checking....
obviously I had done a "flush" of my shared_pool!

I respectfully disagree. In order to use a function based index
you do need the upper. If optimizer doesn't pick it up straigt
away, he should give a hand with a hint (/*+ INDEX(alias,index) */)
