title: Rails - Don't want timezone in sql o/p
body: <p>I have a Rails app on PGSQL and there is a Date of Birth column (timestamp without time zone).</p>
  
  <p>I use a "select" to get the employee data back and return that as JSON, but the DOB always comes back with a timezone, e.g. "dob":"1992-06-18T20:00:00-04:00". </p>
  
  <p>I tried using to_char(emp.dob, 'YYYY-MM-DD HH24:MI:SS'), but no effect.</p>
  
  <p>Any one has any ideas how to get the o/p to not contain TZ information? </p>
  
  <p>Something like: 1992-06-18 20:00:00</p>
  
  <p>Thanks</p>
