From 698afe1173c6501d29b98389204d3ac70aaea910 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Godfrey Chan Date: Sat, 14 Feb 2015 00:04:16 -0800 Subject: Mention `where.not` in the example ...so it doesn't look like you *have* to use SQL strings for that case (not anymore!). Would like to replace the SQL string example with something that you cannot do with the "normal" query API, but I could not come up with a short, realistic example.
