the three dba walk into a bar joke....

You've all heard it.

Three DBAs walk into a bar.  They leave because they can't find a table.

Ha ha.  Very good, but what about all the excitement today about NoSQL.  Sure no table is fine but what exactly are we using to store our data?

My experience so far with NoSQL components is limited but from what I see they do not offer the mathematical rigor of a SQL database as envisoned by Date and Codd.  But I do see that for some quick key/value look ups they are great.
