Double and Parse

MAF
I am seeing the following behavior for my code. If I pass in 0 the system
thinks the value is a string, but if I use 0.0 I believe I get a double
value. Has anyone else seen this behavior, am I doing something wrong?

double tmp = Double.Parse(m_Value.ToString());

Actuall I get the same results with 0.0.

Is this normal behavior?

Could you post a short but complete program which demonstrates the
problem?

See http://www.pobox.com/~skeet/csharp/complete.html for details of
what I mean by that.
