yes of course the parent table is empty. The trigger on insert is
redirecting it to the proper child table.

select count(*) from only tstesting.account ;
count
-------
0
(1 row)

select count(*) from only tstesting.account_part1 ;
count
-------
83659
(1 row)

select count(*) from only tstesting.account_part5 ;
count
-------
83659
(1 row)
