Umm.. define 'it'. (Isn't current_timestamp or now() already a
timestamp?)

select CURRENT_TIMESTAMP, CURRENT_TIMESTAMP-2*3600;
timestamp | ?column?
------------------------+------------
2001-04-24 13:06:11+03 | 1981-08-07

I also have a question.. How, for example, would I add 90 days to the
current timestamp?

Thanks,
-Cedar
