[Remind-Fans] Regular reminders

[Craig B Agricola]

You're on the right track with OMIT, but I've always solved this with
a local OMIT context.  Look in the manual for (PUSH|CLEAR|POP)-OMIT-CONTEXT
Basically, for recurring appointments where I want to be able to selectively
cancel individual occurences, I do something like:

PUSH-OMIT-CONTEXT
OMIT 11 May 2005
OMIT 25 May 2005
REM Wed Mar 9 2005 *7 SKIP UNTIL Jun 15 2005 AT 10:00 MSG Weekly meeting
POP-OMIT-CONTEXT
