samething as '24 hours', at least not<br /> if you live anywhere that they have daylight savings time.<br /><br /> You
canprobably get the behavior you want by passing the value through<br /> justify_hours(), which does the conversion
assuming1 day == 24 hours.<br /><br />                        regards, tom lane<br /></blockquote></div><br /><br
