Certainly not; psql doesn't even know what a timestamp is. If you get different results in a different client interface, it could only be because the interface code fools with the TimeZone (and/or DateStyle) parameter settings. This is not out of the question --- I think JDBC tries to force TimeZone to UTC, for instance. regards, tom lane
