   Columns 'term' and 'process_time' converted to intervals. Just to confirm
my understanding of today's lesson:

     SELECT permit_nbr, title, date_issued, term, process_time from Permits
            WHERE date_issued + term) < (CURRENT_DATE + process_time + '2 week'::INTERVAL);

is now correct syntax and use?

Thanks all,

Rich
