   It has become this non-dba's job, for the moment, to determine the
   possiblility of stored proceedure use in postgres.  I've sifted
   documentation and user groups to find rumors that postgres can
   handle them..  but no clear indication or tutorial about how to do
   it.  Does anyone know of a tutorial or book that would be good to
   read?  Or, perhaps, if someone has done this can you give me a
   basic outline?
   
See the PostgreSQL documentation online:

http://www.postgresql.org/idocs/

The Programmer's Guide has examples on creating/using stored
procedures.  It is far from complete, but should get you started.  The
few PostgreSQL books I have read do not cover the subject any
better... most I learned was from trial and error.
