     you will sometimes need to add parentheses when using combinations
     of binary and unary operators.  For instance
 
-SELECT 5 ! ~ 6;
+SELECT 5 ! + 6;
 
    will be parsed as
 
-SELECT 5 ! (~ 6);
+SELECT 5 ! (+ 6);

     To get the desired behavior in this case, you must write
 
-SELECT (5 !) ~ 6;
+SELECT (5 !) + 6;
 
     This is the price one pays for extensibility.
