Hm, if remind doesn't already support multiple %"foo%" sections, then if
you really, really want this behavior you might look at the "SYSTEM
VARIABLES" section of 'man remind', specifically the variables like
$SimpleCal, $CalMode, etc.  You can create quite complex expressions by
testing against those, but it's probably not worth it to add a period to
the end of Frankie's trip to Hollywood.
