The internal search function is temporarily non-functional. The current search engine is no longer viable and we are researching alternatives.
As a stop gap measure, we are using Google's custom search engine service.

Doubt all you like, Joe. There's a great deal of that going on here of late.
I realize this problem is not the same as one I previously solved in a similar manner. The challenge was to find out the size of the largest gap of numbers in a large table (circa 250M rows)... And to list the gaps that were larger than a particular size.
Two SQL statements. . About 10 minutes to develop and about 30 seconds to execute (as I recall). Those statements only had to go to three-level join (since that's all that's needed for such an answer). But still.
For a one-timer that we'd never have to do again, I would challenge you to provide a similar result in less than an hour, start to finish! If it were a permanent need, I might have done it differently. Or not.
There's too much "you're wrong because your way doesn't look like my way" being spread around here. Where's the open-mindedness? We've all gotten tough!
