I have a message board. Where users can send each other messages. I doubt I 
will ever get 2147483647 messages, but I want to make sure I never get an error
where the message isn't sent. I guess the best option is to create a function
that changes all the ids to the lowest values possible and then set the
sequence to the maximum value + 1.

Thanks everyone for your help.
