 timestamps with an explicit time zone other than freezing the info into

 time zone. Much cleaner, and if you need the time zone in the result

Allow fractional seconds in date/time types even for dates prior to 1BC.
Limit timestamp data types to 6 decimal places of precision. Just right
 for a micro-second storage of int8 date/time types, and reduces the
 number of places ad-hoc rounding was occuring for the float8-based types.
Use lookup tables for precision/rounding calculations for timestamp and
 interval types.  Formerly used pow() to calculate the desired value but
 with a more limited range there is no reason to not type in a lookup
 table. Should be *much* better performance, though formerly there were
