        Read the original article

Happily reading xml with
var q2 = from c in xmlDoc.Descendants("Ticket")
                 select new
              { Responded_Date = (DateTime)c.Element("Responded_Date") }
However when the tag is
<Responded_Date xsi:nil="true" />
I get "String was not recognized as a valid DateTime". I don't wish to use the null coalescing operator but simply to take the null and insert into datatable
