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

        PostgreSQL is "post grey squirrel"

                          @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'.
