in the manual:
|6.2.6.2 Storage requirements for date and time types
|
|Column type Storage required 
|DATE  3 bytes 
|DATETIME  8 bytes 
|TIMESTAMP  4 bytes 
|TIME  3 bytes 
|YEAR  1 byte 

so, does datetime do more then date + time? 
datetime = 8 bytes, date + time = 6 bytes

its really a pointless question, but just something that caught my attention 
while i was looking for something else.
