Changed the quotes.
Now I end up with
Array
(
[title] => Greener Plan-it!
[created] => 2009-07-16 13:28:59
[id] => 8197d5
[country_id] => 54
[state_id] => 7
[Post] => Array
(
[0] => Array
(
[SUBSTR(description, 0, 50)] =>
)
)
)
There is a description to be pulled but nothing shows up.
Ideas?
Thanks
Dave

Your quotes are wrong:
'fields' =>array(
'Post.title',
'Post.created',
'SUBSTR(description, 0, 50)',
'Post.id'),
