Nope. I will look at the docs some and play around. This machine is not
fully production yet. :)

Thanks! I have the ~exact~ same database on another machine with PG 7.1.2
and it uses the Index Scan without tweaking. I have never had troubles
with indexes up until this table/database.
I have got another database on the same 7.2.1 machine. It has very
similar data and the same index. It has no trouble defaulting to use the
Index.
awos=# explain analyze select * from t1999_06 WHERE station = 'SAMI4';
NOTICE: QUERY PLAN:
Index Scan using t1999_06_stn_idx on t1999_06 (cost=0.00..25859.88
rows=36544 width=53) (actual time=152.94..152.94 rows=0 loops=1)

Augh. Puzzling. Thanks everyone for the help! You all rock!
