There used to be, before Informix bought Red Brick. Or is that Lead Brick? I think someone made a blunder there. Someone probably had the bright idea of buying Red Hat before the Linux snowball got rolling, so they sent someone off to buy them. They went and said, "I need to buy Red Um..., Red Um....", and someone said "Brick?" "Yes, that's them...." And the rest, as they say, is hysterical.
