And thank you for writing ical2rem. I use that daily too. I have four 
different work calendars that cron jobs pull down daily, run through 
ical2rem, and then include in my local .reminders.

But how do people go the other way? I work with people that expect to 
look at my organization provided Google and Outlook calendars and see 
when I am available. I don't keep those calendars up to date, so they 
are not that useful, but it might be better if they were useful.

Thanks again.
