Is there a reasonable way to extract a list of all tables which contain a
specific column name from the system views on 8.1?
For instance, I might want to enumerate all tables with a column named
last_modified.
Take a look at:

Thanks Bruno! It appears I can simply do this:
select table_name from information_schema.columns where column_name =
'last_modified';
