All...

I have a simple table in PostgreSQL 8.2.5:

CREATE TABLE power_transitions (
    -- Transition ID (PK)
    tid integer NOT NULL,
    -- State ID (0 = Unknown, 1 = Online (AC power), 2 = Offline (Battery)
    sid smallint NOT NULL,
    -- Timestamp of transition
    statetime timestamp without time zone DEFAULT now() NOT NULL,
    -- Is this a real outage?
    is_outage boolean DEFAULT true NOT NULL
);

It contains a log of power outages (transitions).  I'd like to create
query that returns a transition offline time and associated return to
online time.  Is there a better way of handling this?  I am open to
schema change suggestions.  Thanks very much!
