SELECT date_trunc('month', date_column), ...
GROUP BY date_trunc('month', date_column)
HAVING count(primary_key) > 1;
Replace date_trunc('month', date_column) with whatever you want to group it
by. Note that date_part can give you interesting groupings (all the
Decembers, all the 1st of the months, all the Fridays, etc...)
If you want to run through it several times, you can have a sub-select in the
from clause. You could also save the results in a temp table.
