What is a KISS (Keep it Simple, Stupid) way to remember what Boyce-Codd normal form is and how to take a unnormalized table and BCNF it?

Wikipedia\'s info: not terribly

    I googled "boyce codd normal form" and after wikipedia this is the second result. My textbook gives a very simple definition in terms of relational database management systems:

    The left side of every nontrivial FD must be a superkey.

    -"Database Systems The Complete Book" by Garcia-Molina, Ullman and Widom.
