I think I compare an interval with an interval. 
the result should be true because there is 1008 hours between the 2
dates
But I need to substract more than 24 hours to get a 'true'

select age('2009-06-23 18:36:05.064066+02' ,'"2009-05-12 18:36:05.064066
+02"') > interval '983 hours';

So age() lost 24 H.
