BUT DateTime currently will not store 'null' - it returns 'now' instead.
We end up having to store string or integer values because we can't
store a null date :(
That's exactly what ?DateTime is for - "either DateTime or Null", just
like in a database.
In most type systems, there is no such thing as "a null date" - if it's
null, it's not a date, it's a null value.
