According to
<http://www.postgresql.org/docs/current/static/datatype.html&gt;,
'timestamp' defaults to 'timestamp with time zone'. But that page also
lists 'timestamp' an alias for 'timestamp without time zone'.

Something's not right.

Good catch. Table 8-9 has the brackets in the right places, but it
looks like we missed updating table 8-1.
