No, I'm not keen on this change because it could break existing reminder
files.  Someone might have an existing reminder like:

        REM whatever MSG Check pump #2

I think the inconvenience of having to say:

       # This is a comment that should not be displayed by remind
       REM 08 February MSG My reminder

rather than having the comment inline is pretty slight.

Regards,

Dianne.
