If you parse a string that only contains a date into a DateTime, the result is midnight (0000) on that day. Eg '01/01/2011' => 20110101T0000. You also get this if you take the Date property of any DateTime.
The difference between two DateTimes (including one returned from .Date) obtained with '-' is a TimeSpan. Similarly, if you want to add to a datetime with '+', the addend must be a TimeSpan.
