to clarify. just trying to ensure I understand what PG 8.4 and 8.3 provide
where you may have data from alternate languages where ideally you'd like
them in the same table in the same database etc.
create table T ( c1 char( ...), c2 char (...) ... ) where c1 may contain
thai, c2 korean, c3 turkish etc names
vs
create table TKO (c1 char(...)), create table TTH (c1 char (...))
vs
different databases etc
