[GENERAL] Arrrr... date formatting.

[Alex Turner]

Shiver me timbers, whats up with to_char()?!

Avast!  Is there no way to get a month without it being padded to nine characters?  It makes using a database to actualy format a date for output kinda impossible?

I'll have to walk the plank if I can't get an answer, the crew will mutiny and leave me on an island with a one-shot pistol and the sight of me sails dissapearing over the horizon!
