What locale are you using? Non-C locales have sorting rules more
complex than you seem to be expecting.
$ cat data

Hi,
On my Postgres system ( PostgreSQL 7.1.2 on i686-pc-linux-gnu, compiled
by GCC 2.96), I get the following odd behavior in string compares:
# Works -- e (ASCII code 101) is after comma (ASCII code 44)
select current_time where 'e' > ',';
# Works -- adding a k to the front of both strings
