just a thought - it took me five years after migrating from mysql to 
pg to start thinking like an sql programmer. I used to keep trying to 
write stuff for pg 'like' i used to for mysql. When i did that - i 
didnt get any of the benefits of pg - might as well have continued to 
write in mysql. Especially so when i went into convolutions trying to 
translate the enum type and the 'set' syntax on insert. In these 
cases i suggest dumping the mysql way and rewriting in the pg way.
