Playing with this, & my SQL knowledge not being so good I have a question. Why does this;
pending_date < current_timestamp - 1 day return the same as this pending_date < (current_timestamp - 1 day) But they both return different from this Date(pending_date) < date(current_timestamp - 1 day) I'm guessing its precision and the date() function?

I think I had this issue before, but I can't seem to find the solution to it. Any suggestions as to why this will not work? I am trying to get that listing pinpointed to reporting each tape on the first day that it becomes "pending" and it just doesn't see to like my syntax. Thanks!
