Hi all.

This ISO datestyle is a nuisance.  In my /etc/profile I am exporting
an env var:  export PGDATESTYLE='postgres'

This converts the date back to what ppl here are used to...but it
does not work for the web server and the nobody user.

Do I have to manually SET the variable before every SELECT ???
Geez, I hope not...

Thanks,
Tom
