 * NAME
 *   date_timestamp1.js
 *
 * DESCRIPTION
 *   Insert and query DATE and TIMESTAMP columns.
 *
 *   When bound in an INSERT, JavaScript Dates are inserted using
 *   TIMESTAMP unless explicitly bound as another type.
 *   For queries, TIMESTAMP and DATE columns are fetched as is and
 *   converted to a JavaScript date/time datatype in the JavaScript
 *   timezone.
