Not with the current implementation of insert.  There's been some 
discussion of adding the multiple tuple insert seen in other databases, 
but I don't think anyone's actually done it or even agreed on exactly
how 
to do it.  I'm not sure if SQL 3 covers this, it seems like it hints at 
it, but I can't read that stuff all that well most of the time.

I don't think there's a way right now though, without using some form of

copy.
