I'm trying to read/write timestamps as binary data, but I'm getting
garbage. It looks like there are 8 bytes of timestamp data (if I read
the headers correctly), which I had assumed was the time in millis from
the PostgreSQL epoch, but my values are way off. I wrote what I thought
was valid data to my timestamp columns, but my queries in the psql
console show (epoch?) for each one. When I read the binary content
back, I'd expect to get 0s, but I get some non-zero values.
