AFAIK, no, remind only shows the events, not the
times. Yet you have one option, I guess. wxRemind has a script to do
precisely this. Check the mail list's files, or wxRemind's web page, there
should be more info.

Another approach is to call remind with the -s flag, and make a script for
yourself to parse and format properly the reminders, wether they are timed
or untimed.... If you do so, let us know ;)
