It's not only that I rarely use it, it's also that it's ugly. It's Relational Cobol. It's as loveable as Oracle. The vendor specific dialects don't even agree on how to do recursive queries do they?

Unfortunately I am very good at forgetting things I resented having to learn, and SQL is definitively one of them.
