No, this has nothing to do with Mr. Dominus.

Rich, can you explain the pseudo-mjd system that Date::ICal uses for its
internals?  And why didn't you you use real MJD?

Inquiring minds want to know.  I think this is particularly important
since I was hoping to use this format as the basis for interoperability,
but I'd more comfortable with a real standard for that (I suppose ICal
fits the bill there, but it requires everyone to parse things out over and
over).
