Hi: Is there a good way to override the mappings between class variables and database column type as determined by activerecord ? I have a column in the database table (postgres) that is declared as numeric(1000,0) which is an exact precision type. However, activerecord maps the correspoding class variable to type float which will not work for me. I''d like to map it to ruby type Bignum
