Everytime I see this happen, I wonder how much productive time has been
lost due to the quirks of the class. It doesn't help that other values
start with 1 or that WEEK_OF_YEAR ranges from 1 to 53, while
WEEK_OF_MONTH ranges from 0 to 6.
While it's not difficult to create a subclass that acts naturally,
getting a *standard* one that doesn't confuse programmers even more (
considering the original ) is tough.
Anyhow, if you want to avoid writing the durations conversion yourself
every time, I have an article and a class for durations from milliseconds
through weeks available at:
