Thank you for this!
Okay. Here's my plan:  (I'll use our iMac for the guinea pig machine.)
I will create an ical subfolder in the Application Scripts folder.  Then I'll put a couple of applets in there and attach Calendar event alerts to them.
THEN I will apply the 10.9.2 update……

Then I will report back.
I did go ahead and purchase licenses for Lingon X for our three production systems that rely so heavily on the timers in Calendar.  Lingon X is certainly promising and the price is better than right.  But the UI with Calendar has been oh so sweet.
I would like to consider Lingon X as my backup, kwim?
