Unfortunately I cannot post on your blog, I wanted to since that is indeed where responses should go, without apparently joining the sqlserver community website. As I'm not responsible for any sqlserver in this shop it's difficult to see why membership should be required to respond to a blog.

Not knowing what to look for in another technology that uses a different name for the same thing works both ways - I have yet to find subquery factoring as a term in Books Online for example - the term does return a result, but it doesn't appear that http://blogs.msdn.com/mattwar/default.aspx is entirely what I would expect.
