That would be a range with an empty upper bound. Let's say that the rate

A query to find the current rate would look like:
SELECT rate
FROM labor_rate_mult
WHERE validity @> CURRENT_DATE;
Here you can find documentation on the range types (cool stuff I believe):

Charles,
Interesting. Certainly worth considering the next time an application needs
a range of dates.
