It's also the choice of words that are used for some of the commands
that irks me. Instead of SELECT I would have used GET. Instead of
TRIGGER I would have used EVENT. Instead of JOIN I would have used
INTERSECT. It's hard to remember commands when you don't feel their
names are the most intuitive.
