Yes, but it's a column that you appear to be using to store date
information.

No we don't.

See, this is where you're plain wrong. The mysql rdbms defines several
different types of data, and when it comes to performing various
operations on that data, it cares for a lot more than "is this column
numeric or string data".
This is the typical Richard that pisses us off so much again. You're
presuming to lecture me on the internals of the mysql rdbms, a subject
upon which you clearly know absolutely nothing, and the lecture you're
presuming to deliver is wholly factually wrong.
