I'm surprised at that particular error, instead of "__init__() takes at
most 2 arguments"..

DateTime takes a time tuple as a parameter, which has 9 integer elements,
not 6.  You can convert the strings to ints using the "int()" operator.
Note that you need TWO sets of parens: one for the function, one for the
tuple:

bdate = DateTime((int(Bjaar),int(Bmaand),int(Bdag),0,0,0,0,0,0))
