Hi Folks
I have a column for date which defaults to the ambigous 2005-1-1
format.
The documantation indicates how to change this to the unambigous Jan 1
2005, but the instructions aren't clear to me.

Actually, if the year comes first, it is not ambiguous.  It will always
be month-day if the year comes first. It's the
mm/dd/yyyy or dd/mm/yyyy that is the issue.

TIP 9: In versions below 8.0, the planner will ignore your desire to
      choose an index scan if your joining column's datatypes do not
      match
