This doesn't really belong on advocacy, so let me just post the reason
here, and take further discussions off-list.
psql locally = locally on his box, *not* wwwmaster, is what I meant.
We don't want end-users running *anything* on wwwmaster. This is the reason
we made it it's own VM. We do *not* want the mess of svr1 all over again.
An option could be to have Josh run his scripts on svr1, since that's the
closest thing to a "shell box" that we have for project users. Yes, it's a
mess, but it works for that :-P
