Tommy, you get the prize, only there is no prize, except perhaps for that warm-fuzzy feeling you get when you solve a problem.

I wonder about that error message. My guess is the message is probably built up programmatically, and that the spaces inside the data type name (TIMESTAMP WITH TIME ZONE) trigger the glitch. That's only a guess.
