 SQL tutorials by John Paul Ashenfelter written for ONLamp.com

This is a wonderful collection of MySQL tutorials from ONLamp.com which helped me tremendously to master the art. The only thing is that I didn't like the way their table of contents was done so I did my own, in chronological order, at least the ones by John Paul Ashenfelter. I have not had time to study the others yet.
