    @bloor I cannot read SQL as anything but "squirrel"

    PostgreSQL is "post grey squirrel"

                @bloor I've heard someone say "t-sip" for tcp/ip. Boy...where did you learn networking?

                      @bloor@bloor.tw well SQL is pronounced "sqeual" actually so DNS would be more like Denise

                                @bloor SQL is SQL, but Microsoft SQL server is definitely 'sequel'. Nobody will ever convince me that SQL alone is 'sequel'.
