...bearing in mind that that will not include occurrences of recurring
events which fall during that period as you might see in the UI iCal
calendar. To include those you'd also have to parse the recurrence strings
of every recurring event beginning before the event you started with. iCal
_could_ do that for you (since it knows how to do it for the UI), but
there's no AppleScript access to that operation other than parsing
recurrence strings - something that would be extremely complex and tedious.
