Cool!

Lets start a poll!

How long until someone posts this as a bug?

Forget the poll.

It took 55 minutes.

Does anyone else have trouble using the year unit?

The year unit acting wierd is from it representing a Julian Year (365.25 days, I think LV might be including leap seconds in it's math as well).  So it's not going to work too well for "normal" datebook like calculations (you'd be better off switching to the date time rec for those).
