I'm slowly learning the ins and outs of LINQtoSQL, but this is confusing me.

Here is the statement I have:

IQueryable<IEvent> events = (from e in db.getEvents()
                            select e).Select(x => SelectEvent(x, null));

What the SelectEvent does can be explained in this answer here. I am not using the .toList() function as I don't want potentially thousands of records brought into memory.

public IEvent SelectEvent(SqlServer.Event ev, EventType? type) {
    // Create an object which implements IEvent
    // I don't have the code in front of me, so forgive the lack of code
}

My question is really for the Select() method. I get the "Cannot translate to SQL" error and the Select() is listed in the error message.

Clueless on this one :-/.
