I am under the impression that MySQL does not have anything resembling
Postgres' support for regular expressions. Though some might think
that regular expressions are a sort of poor man's SQL, in any
application which manages large amounts of text they are crucial.
Postgres definitely does not suck.
Is this the authoratative webpage for "Snowball" (which I never
realized was a play on "Snobol")?
