[comp.sys.next] Date

In using the reminder features of date (the calendar
utility), I often set the window-type reminder.  It seems
to me that when the window pops up to tell me about a
future event, if often includes a past event.  Just now
I get a reminder about today's lunch and Monday's meeting,
and on there was mention of last Wednesday evening's
dinner arrangements.  That seems rather odd.  Is it a
feature, a misfeature, or a bug, I wonder?  Anyone know?

In the DATE application, is there any way to save changes in the page layout?

I want the window to be larger, and I can accomplish this by changing the page
layout.  However, the change is not permenant.

Thanks

So, I run the Date app in /NextDeveloper/Demos.  It looks interesting
and useful, so I load in a bunch of events, save the datebook and
quit.

Now, if I try to start Date I get a bus error.

If I rename the datebook in my home directory, it runs fine, but again
gives a bus error if I try to load my datebook.

The author, Bryan Yamamoto, does not give a net address (perhaps he's
at NeXT?).

Hints, suggestions, commiseration, sources?
