[Remind-Fans] Error: "Date Overflow" In Complicated Recipie

[Porcelalin Mouse]

Hi Dianne,

Thanks!  After seeing these compact forms and the new, included US 
holidays recipe, I immediately removed those old commands from my file and 
imported US.rem.  The error is gone.  I won't bother you with other errors 
that may be present and exposed by the debugging you suggested.  But, 
thanks for the offer.

Thanks for your help and for remind!

P.S. I see you have Juneteenth specified in the included US.rem file. 
Since this is actually a very new--the newest?--national holiday, I wonder 
if you like the idea of limiting it to only 2021 and future years?  If you 
don't like that idea, I think I'd like that on my system.  I tried adding 
"FROM 1 June 2021", but that didn't work.  How would you do that?

P.P.S.
Also, I found this in the file:

   134 #############################################################################
   135 #                                                                           #
   136 # The following holidays were provided by Dave Rickel                       #
   137 # Modified by D. Skoll to give safe OMITs for moveable holidays             #
   138 #                                                                           #
   139 #############################################################################

I don't remember where I found the file, either.  I think I remember 
purging the bookmark when I found your git.

P.P.P.S. I intend to become maintainer of this package for Fedora.  I just 
don't have time right now.  I'll let you all know when I get around to it.
