storing pickles in sql data base

[David Bear]

I need to store pickled objects in postgresql. I reading through the pickle
docs it says to always open a file in binary mode because you can't be sure
if the pickled data is binary or text. So I have 2 question. Can I set the
pickle to be text -- and then store it in a 'text' type field in my sql
table, or should what sql type should I save the pickle as?
