Curious age() behavior Cont'd

I should point out that it works as I expected it to on other values..

hhs=# SELECT age('Sun Nov 05 08:00:00 2000 EST','Tue Oct 10 08:00:00 2000
EDT') as esec;
       esec
------------------
 @ 26 days 1 hour
(1 row)

hhs=# SELECT ('Tue Oct 10 08:00:00 2000 EDT'::timestamp + '1 mon 24 days 1
hour'::interval);
           ?column?
------------------------------
 Mon Dec 04 08:00:00 2000 EST
(1 row)

*shrug*

Thanks again..
