Just for the sake of argument... how about the time it takes runners to finish a marathon?  Sure you could use seconds as an integer field, but time without date make sense...

I agree that "4pm" is kind of pointless, but "16 hours" can be handy.

If only to save me from having to convert from seconds to hh:mm:ss and back, etc...

 So we have to differentiate between

-  "Time" which means Point of Time in a specific day, and

-  "Duration" which means the difference between two Points in Time

Is there a "Duration" gem for RoR ?
