[Remind-Fans] USHOLS Tax Day Example

Hello!

I noticed that the USHOLS example for Tax Day doesn't seem correct:

    REM Mon Tue Wed Thu Fri Sat 15 Apr MSG %"Income tax%" due

I think Saturday and Friday shouldn't be in there, and IIUC, if it falls
on Fri/Sat/Sun, it's the following Tuesday (not Monday).

Maybe something like:

FSET _tax(x) (wkdaynum(x) == 1 && day(x) != 15)
REM OMITFUNC _tax Mon Tue Wed Thu 15 Apr AFTER CAL Tax Day

I dunno, is that right?

It seems to give the right date for the examples listed in Wikipedia!

Tavis.
