FYI, to follow up on another post.  "postgre" is not really an acceptable
shortening of PostgreSQL.  "postgres" is generally accepted, although there
seem to be some people who dislike that as well.  "PG" or "PGSQL" also seem
to be generally accepted shortenings of the name, but for some reason
there seem to be a lot of people who dislike "postgre".

indeed, since the etymology(?) of the name is Ingres -> Postgres -> PostgreSQL
