The decode example works like a charm!!!  Thank you so much.

Something like this:

select record_key,
       max(decode(id,31,value,'')) start_time,
       max(decode(id,19,value,'')) shift,
       max(decode(id,10,value,'')) rate 
  from t1
 group by record_key;

or this:

select a.record_key, start_time, shift, rate
  from (select record_key, value start_time from t1 where id = '31') a,
       (select record_key, value shift from t1 where id = '19') b, 
       (select record_key, value rate from t1 where id = '10') c
 where a.record_key = b.record_key
   and b.record_key = c.record_key;

Of course both of these have a lot of assumptions about the data, such
as there always being a row (and only one row) for each value specified.
And I won't get into the performance pains this may create.
