How does one sum interval sums?

the following does not work:
select sum(stop-start::interval) as total from startstop
                      where sid    = 545   and
                            2006  = date_part('year', day)   and
                            9 = date_part('month', day)
however  select stop-start::interval) as total from startstop
                      where sid    = 545   and
                            2006  = date_part('year', day)   and
                            9 = date_part('month', day)
works great but I need an overall sum
Table schema:
         Table "public.startstop"
Column |          Type          | Modifiers
--------+------------------------+-----------
sid    | integer                | not null
start  | time without time zone |
stop   | time without time zone |
day    | date                   | not null

thanks
