I would like to join your fine establishment.
I have never had to suffer through Oracle administration or development myself, but I am tired as hell of hearing about Oracle. Noone has ever been able to explain to me why Oracle is worth all the extra licensing fees and man-hours. What does Oracle do that any one of a dozen other database engines don't (aside from marketing the hell out of itself)?

RE: VC demands Oracle?
Actually, the original name was "Postgres". They (misguidedly, IMHO) changed it to "PostgreSQL" (pronounced "Postgres-Q-L") shortly after adding SQL support about a decade ago. A lot of people erroniously shorten it to "Postgre". I (and many others) just call it Postgres, which is at least historically accurate. "PostgreSQL" is just too much of a mouthful, and it's even more crazy when people pronounce "SQL" as "Sequel".
