What I just can't understand is that I want to create a _table_ named
"user", and I can't do that because there is
a _function_ named exactly that. Why I care is becuase I'm kind of a
perfectionist. I want the database to match the UML class diagram.
Anyway I called it "uzer" now. Maybe usr is better... users is out of the
question since table names are supposed to go in singularis.
Thanks for the input though, all of you :)
