This works:
CREATE TEMP TABLE temp_medical_summary AS (SELECT * from
bov.medical_summary)
This gives an error:
CREATE TEMP TABLE IF NOT EXISTS temp_medical_summary AS (SELECT * from
bov.medical_summary)
It would seem that CREATE TABLE AS does not support IF NOT EXISTS. Is this
true?

Thank-you, mystery solved! I was reading the CREATE TABLE docs and not
the CREATE TABLE AS docs. My mistake.

that doesn't
intersect with any other's. I went for the second, cross joining the table
to itself, so every record with be compared to every other record, which is
gonna be a huge number of comparisons. So it'll be slow.

I get the following error when trying to create a view with the
following trivial example.
