 * Hello and thanks for reading this. I have two blogs installed using the same 
   database, one with $table_prefix = ‘wp1_’ and the other with $table_prefix = ‘
   wp2_’. What I want to do is displaying posts from the second blog (wp2) on the
   main page of the first blog (wp1), but when I use query_posts it always takes
   posts from the current database (wp1). How can I use query_posts to get posts
   from other table in database? 10x.

 * Ok, I’ll put it some other way. How can I modify The Loop so that it reads posts
   from other table in the database than wp_posts?
