I have not been successful using the date class as a :col-type in a DAO. Here is what I have tried:

(defclass cpa-address () ((id :col-type integer :accessor address-id) (start_date :col-type date :accessor address-start-date) (version :col-type integer)) (:metaclass postmodern:dao-class) (:keys id) (:table-name gt_address))

In the Postgres database, the field type of start_date is date. When I select a cpa-address DAO, I expect to see a symbol of type simple-date in the start_date slot, but what I get is a CL universal time.

Should I be trying something else to take advantage of simple-date? Thanks for any help.
