   Than  again we're no better than the other DB's. The standard   excludes $  from  any  character  class.  Oracle
and others   violate the standard by allowing them in identifiers while we   alone violate it by allowing them  in
operators.  Well,  at   least we're different!
 
   I would've expected you, Tom, to suggest removing it from the   operators as well :-)
