+    4.24) How do I do an outer join?
+    
+   PostgreSQL does not support outer joins in the current release. They
+   can be simulated using UNION and NOT IN. For example, when joining
+   tab1 and tab2, the following query does an outer join of the two
+   tables:
+        SELECT tab1.col1, tab2.col2
+        FROM tab1, tab2
+        WHERE tab1.col1 = tab2.col1
+        UNION ALL
+        SELECT tab1.col1, NULL
+        FROM tab1
+        WHERE tab1.col1 NOT IN (SELECT tab2.col1 FROM tab2)
+        ORDER BY tab1.col1
