apparently, the money time is deprecated and will be going the way of the
dinosaurs someday soon (so threaten the developers)

we used the money data type extensively in an installation i run... with the
news of money going out of style however =) we switched to numeric(9,2) which
works quite well...

still some quirks with numeric: no money->numeric (surprise), int2 doesn't play
well with numeric (but converts easily to int4 which does)...

it took me 2 days to rid our system of money and update all our code... and now
it works much nicer, too!
