[stringtemplate-interest] Current C# Dev Version

[Dustin A. Lambert]

I tested some different dates to see what $Today.Year$ evaluates to:

8/4/2009: 8434
8/4/2010: 6784
8/4/2011: 5135
1/1/2009: 1398
1/1/2010: 14362
1/1/2011: 12712

I know this sounds crazy... Not sure what else to do.

Interesting that future dates have exactly 1650 difference between years...
