I've created a user with a time zone of America/Chicago and a server time z=
one of America/New York. I run the following query and America/New York is =
returned. The user time zone setting is ignored. It doesn't seem to be usab=
le via JDBC.

select now(), extract(timezone FROM now()), current_setting('TIMEZONE'), no=
w()-interval '1 hour' as "1HourAgo"

I don't see any documented PostgreSQL JDBC connection properties that cause=
 the user time zone to be honored. Is there a way to via a JDBC connection =
to cause the user time zone to be used?

Thanks in advance,
