Agreed.
I fixed up the code.
Many thanks to Patricia for her fix to the String problem.
Dan Crawl will work on the Kepler build, I'll set him up with write
privis on the ptII tree shortly.
I think our work here on DateToken is pretty much complete.

I added a convert() method to DateToken which seems to work well. I did hack
in a check for StringToken which will try to instantiate a DateToken. I'm
not sure if that is right.
This seems wrong to me. It is not generally possible to convert a
String into a Date. Also, the type lattice doesn't permit that
conversion. Type inference is supposed to yield a typing of which the
automatic type conversions that it imposes during run time work
without exception. We should not misuse the conversion method to build
a customized parser.
