Not a problem. Glad to offer data you find useful.
I'm personally hoping to develop locally some uncomplicated and robust
way to add iCal format and syndication -- including the event items
your script currently bails on, and with proper handling of year
rollover.

Excuse me? Do you think I _like_ PHP? You would be mistaken. I
think it's rather loathsome.
I don't like either that language or dynamic Web content.
In the alternative, you might have been frantically overparsing my
mentioning of Deirdre's recently announced intention to write a MySQL ->
iCal parser in Ruby. I mentioned that merely because it's so, and
because the fact seemed relevant: I could not possibly care less about
what coding languages you like or dislike, and "baiting" anyone on that
subject wouldn't have occurred to me at all.
