selecting column comment

[Ari Kahn <resglowing@xxxxxxx>]

I have a comments on tables in my database.

e.g. COMMENT ON TABLE my_schema.my_table IS 'Employee Information';

I know you can get comments using \d+

Is there a way to select comments?

Reason: I do a lot of perl interfaces. I find escape commands do not  
work using DBI.

Thanks,
Ari
