Both are on the same box and the > date column is with time zone. It looked odd to me too, but you haven't told us anything useful. What's the platform, what's the PG version, how exactly did you get the value from PG (is it "select now()", or what?), what exactly do you have PG's TIMEZONE variable set to? And what application are you comparing the results to? Calling "PDT" "Pacific Standard Time" doesn't exactly leave me with warm fuzzies about that application's level of timezone-fu, whatever it is. regards, tom lane
