You can do "show all" inside psql, which will show you all of your
current run time settings, including a line that should read "Time Zone
is unset" or whatever it is set to.
This isn't abundantly clear in the docs, so I'll add some notation
there, but if you check out
http://www.postgresql.org/idocs/index.php?sql-set.html
and
http://www.postgresql.org/idocs/index.php?timezones.html
it will explain how to update your internal timezone as needed.
