> With the move from MySQL to Postgres, the API will reflect the true data 
> types of each value as represented in the database. For example, the Postgres 
> version of the TO database now has boolean columns (rather than using 
> smallint). These values should be represented in the API as booleans 
> (true|false) as opposed to "0"|"1" as before.
> Also, in the old MySQL TO, ints or numbers were represented as "age":"23" in 
> the API. That should change to "age":23
> These are the datatypes available in json and they should be taken advantage 
> of when possible:
> Boolean:  true|false
> String: double-quoted Unicode with backslash escaping
> Number: double- precision floating-point format
> Array: an ordered sequence of values
> Object: an unordered collection of key:value pairs
> Null
> I'm creating this issue as a catch-all for any changes required to reflect 
> the true data types in the api.
