Cold Fusion - I'm Just Going to Throw Out There.

In this case, proper structure equals a date type and not a string. And then once you have it in your view, on that date type, you could say like, Hey, I just give me the year. So I agree with the format output, but like to a certain level, I'd rather have the data in the proper structure at the right place. Don't do that up above it. Let that data flow through in the proper format in the Proper structure and then handle the view however you need to.
