ah jeez, you ferrin car drivers, always making thangs
complicated when all you need is a big hammer cubic
inch approach.
What next? Setting maxvalue equal to the current
number and selecting one number? Renaming the sequence
and creating a synonym to point to another? Asking WHY
he needs to do this, only to find out that the code is
flawed since it should not rely on absolute
serialization from a sequence in the first place, for
god's sake?
Don't you know that promoting alternate lifestyle DBA
ideas you are encouraging the inexperienced to
question authority and addin' to the moral corruption
of Ameruca?
Stop poisonin the newbies with fancy ideas about
reverse select and such as that. If recreate was good
enuf for us, it is darn sure good enuf for them!
<end jingoistic rural reactionary rant>
I slay me. I am gonna be at work in one hour, and then
we can DO STATS!
