Craig:
I don't see a reply to your question in today's posts.
"Backticks" or "tick marks" allow you to use reserved words for column names. Interval is a reserved word.
Hope you weren't waiting this long for a response.

Why is it when I have this ` tick mark in my query it works fine, but

This tells to mysql to NOT treat the word as the reserved word that it
_may_ be, but use it literally. and interval, i believe, is a reserved
word. It is much like escaping
