Okay, suffice it to say that I do not understand some of the business rules 
that we have... HOWEVER... 

I have been looking through the docs in a futile attempt to figure out the 
answer to a question posed by one of our developers.  It appears that we have a 
business requirement that calls for a Group by to have upwards of 50 different 
columns IN the group by list and it is giving her an error.

I didn't know there was a limit on what you could group by (only the resulting 
horrendously ugly sort that would occur).  Anyone have a pointer to doc on what 
those limits might be?
