Hi All,

This month, Jay Pipes will be presenting Part II of his 'Join-Fu - The Art of SQL' discussion. Jay will begin the evening with a brief review of Part I for those who may have missed the first session.

Join-Fu is the art of understanding your application's SQL. Join Jay in a fun, irreverent look at the common ways application developers misuse and abuse their database.
