[Remind-Fans] Newbie -- Please help with ical2remind script

[Justin Alcorn]

N.B.  - I'm a Linux user.  Luckily, I bought my wife a Mac, so maybe I
can do some testing to get it working.

You'll probably need to use Pseudo to write to /usr/local/bin.  But it
really can go anywhere in your path.

The file requires some CPAN modules.    Give me until tomorrow to try it
out on the Mac and I'll get a HOWTO together.
