    It would take less than an hour to learn some basic Relational MySQL. (Will take a longer time for Stored Procedures, et.al)

    Are you talking about the query language-- SQL that MySQL uses? SQL is the standard language used by many relational databases. This link -- http://www.w3schools.com/sql/default.asp provides a good tutorial on SQL.

    It is however worth learning SQL properly including stored procedures and functions etc (these are much more server dependant than straight queries) as it is much more efficient to have all the data manipulation done in the SQL server than have continuous trips between webserver and sql server (esp when the site is large and so the two are on different machines) but many people who dont know SQL well will resort to programming loops on the webserver etc to achieve the results they want
