storage representation of DATE and TIME types

please cc me as I am on digetst:
--------------------------------

What is the storage format of 'date'? Is it like a timestamp?

I want to know in order to choose representations in a table that will
receive LOTS of reads with a WHERE clause that chooses dates, and TIMES,
past a supplied reference.

---------------------------(end of broadcast)---------------------------
TIP 5: Have you checked our extensive FAQ?
