Oh, don't worry, people do that. What I particularly enjoy are the
stories (of which there are a number now...) where people moved away
from PG for some reason or another, then to another database, to
another, and another, and finally back to PG again, much the wiser for
it but also rather battle-worn. :)

Thanks!
