Thank you so much for posting these! I've been able to make more of these events and share them with others with your helping us keep up with the details cluttering our lives. Please consider letting me help you possibly transition to a calendar that supports standards like iCal (Google Calendar or otherwise), so we can have all your events on our iPhone or within our RSS feeds, or embedded in our desktop calendars. I would be able to make so many more things if only your calendar was overlapping mine.
