DateTime.Parse error

Question

Can anyone help?

I have a function that checks to see if a string passed is a date with the string "4AD2182"

DateTime.Parse("4AD2182") returns the following Result:

    {4/1/2182 12:00:00 AM}
    Date: {4/1/2182 12:00:00 AM}
    Day: 1
    DayOfWeek: Monday
    DayOfYear: 91
    Hour: 0
    Kind: Unspecified
    Millisecond: 0
    Minute: 0
    Month: 4
    Second: 0
    Ticks: 688334976000000000
    TimeOfDay: {00:00:00}
    Year: 2182

Is this a bug?

Thanks!
