Definitely going to take a look at this. I'm one of the few traditional developers in a company that's got a lot more analytics and database people than application or web people. In such a situation the company is loathe to use ORMs and the old adage of "never do your business logic in the database" doesn't really apply in practice. I've managed to learn enough SQL to get by and fulfill the software's requirements out of sheer necessity and I've actually got to the point I prefer to use it over an ORM, but I'd love to have a more systematic education in the language.
