Bug reference:      15304
Logged by:          Vasilis Ventirozos
Email address:      v.ventirozos@gmail.com
PostgreSQL version: 9.6.3
Operating system:   ubuntu xenial
Description:

Hey all, 
While testing a migration procedure on a database (v9.6.9) from floating
point datetimes to int64 (v9.6.9) using pglogical i saw that after the
initial data sync all the subsequent replicated rows containing dates are
getting nonsensical datetime values in the subscriber. 
I've read:
https://www.postgresql.org/message-id/flat/26788.1487455319%40sss.pgh.pa.us#26788.1487455319@sss.pgh.pa.us
So I know that this is not something new, but i was wondering if there is
any way around this, other than just use slony (that works fine). For
example if there was a pattern, i could possibly translate the "wrong" dates
on the subscriber using a trigger. An interesting observation is that date
'2000-01-01 00:00:00' was actually transferred fine, while '1999-01-01
00:00:00' made the sync worker to error out with "date out of range".

Some examples bellow :
 id |            mydate            |             should_be          |
----+------------------------------+-------------------------------+
72 | 2018-01-01 00:00:00          | Initial row before replication |
73 | 2000-01-01 00:00:00          | 2000-01-01 00:00:00            |
