hi,
thought this up while playing with time spans..
here is my table and data..
bignose=> \d foo
Table "foo"
Attribute | Type | Modifier
-----------+-----------+----------
start | timestamp |
stop | timestamp |
bignose=> select start,stop, stop-start as start_stop from foo;
start | stop | start_stop
------------------------+------------------------+------------

(5 rows)
now my question.. first of all is the first start_stop result a little
off ? (talking about the 3 0's..)
second is there a way i can do a select so it says something more human
usable ie : 100 days 22 hours 32 minutes..
