I am getting this error: *"geography_covers: only POLYGON and POINT types are currently supported"* But I can't see what is wrong. Especially, since I have an ST_Intersects that matches this request, but does not return the error. As far as I can tell, I am passing in Polygons (cat.gpoly) is a geography polygon.
