I want to display the age of the entry in the database in days. I keep getting an error about not being able to convert a date into a float. What am I doing wrong.

Howdy all, This may be the dumbest question in the world, but how can you "add one month" to a Date object? I can''t just add 30 days, because months have varying lengths.

I''ve spent all day digging through the rails api and postgres-pr on this, I think it''s time to ask the list. Postgres stores a Date in YYYY-MM-DD format. My users want the dates in MM/DD/YYYY format. Sure, I could explicitly convert it on the app level every place where a date is displayed, but that seemed like a DRY violation. I thought I''d be clever and simply
