+Summary: DateTime.Parse does not handle "12 AM" nor "12 PM"  correctly
+
+Please fill in this template when reporting a bug, unless you know what you
+are doing.
+Description of Problem:
+The DateTime.Parse() does not handle times like "12:00:00 AM" correctly.
+This is a classic; I saw the same thing in a Python library. The code
+assumes that "12 AM" is 12 hours past the start of the day, instead of 0
+hours. It also throws an exception when parsing "12:00:00 PM"; probably, it
+is adding 12 hours to the time and getting a time > 24hours.
+
+Steps to reproduce the problem:
+1. Run the provided program. 
+2. 
+3. 
+
+Actual Results:
+time='0:00:00' datetime='11/02/2006 00:00:00'
+time='12:00:00 AM' datetime='11/02/2006 12:00:00'
+time='12:00:01 AM' datetime='11/02/2006 12:00:01'
+time='12:00:00' datetime='11/02/2006 12:00:00'
+time='12:00:00 PM' datetime=FormatException
+time='12:00:01 PM' datetime=FormatException
+time='1:00:00 AM' datetime='11/02/2006 01:00:00'
+time='1:00:00 PM' datetime='11/02/2006 13:00:00'
+
+
+Expected Results:
+time='0:00:00' datetime='11/02/2006 00:00:00'
+time='12:00:00 AM' datetime='11/02/2006 00:00:00'
+time='12:00:01 AM' datetime='11/02/2006 00:00:01'
+time='12:00:00' datetime='11/02/2006 12:00:00'
+time='12:00:00 PM' datetime='11/02/2006 12:00:00'
+time='12:00:01 PM' datetime='11/02/2006 12:00:01'
+time='1:00:00 AM' datetime='11/02/2006 01:00:00'
+time='1:00:00 PM' datetime='11/02/2006 13:00:00'
