Jon Haddad commented on CASSANDRA-11873:
----------------------------------------
I'm +1 to all of Sylvain's points. I would definitely prefer to be able to use
{code}WHERE t >= now() - 2h{code} as sugar for the more verbose {code}WHERE t
>= date_sub(now(), 1h){code} or whatever the equivalent would be.

> For CASSANDRA-11871 or to allow queries with {{WHERE}} clause like:
> {{... WHERE reading_time < now() - 2h}}, we need to support some duration
> type.
> In my opinion, it should be represented internally as a number of
> microseconds.
