   Thanks for the review @jackye1995 I have updated based on your comments. The 
last question is what to do about timezones.
   
   @rdblue I agree that handling timestamps on our own is icky however we will 
likely end up having to anyways. We would like to be able to support queries 
that compare tables across versions/times (eg a join between `table1@time1` and 
`table1@time2`) and be able to do this consistently on different engines. I 
suppose in time we can delegate to the Spark timestamp parsing logic if it can 
be found via reflection but in the end we will still have to parse timestamps 
at this level.
