Date defends relational model
http://searchoracle.techtarget.com/originalContent/0,289142,sid41_gci962949,00.html
"Among the barriers to the relational model, Date
said, is the Structured Query Language (SQL)."
""The biggest problem with SQL is that it does not
implement the relational model," Date said, and named
NULLs as a particular pet peeve."
If You Liked SQL,You'll Love XQUERY
