CCing the list.

This didn't sort the way I want.  It ended up as:
     description    | description
-------------------+-------------
  18 cm long wrench | Scene 1
  absolute root     |
  blue screwdriver  | Scene 1
  red toolbox       | Scene 1
  root 3            | Scene 1
  root 4            | Scene 2
  root 6            | Scene 3
  small wrench      | Scene 1
  tire              | Scene 2


The first column is the one I want sorted.

Probably best to show us a made up sample of what you want.

Also note that I made it a left outer join\

Where?
