LISTEN/NOTIFY is yet another SQL. We can write a rule on an event and let
it notify. On the other hand, we can have a while(1) process which keeps
listening for that notification ie.. event. Once the event is occured, the
listening process would be notified. The listening process can be any
postgresql client including the one written in C, perl, php, etc.
