Hi Stevan,
Take a look at
http://simile.mit.edu/timeline/examples/monet/monet.html
Note the event "Lived at Argenteuil, near Paris" between 1870 and 1880.
The two ends of the event are imprecise, and the XML looks like this:
<event start="1871" latestStart="1872" earliestEnd="1878" end="1879"
isDuration="true" title="Lived at Argenteuil, near Paris">
From 1871 to 1878 Monet lived at Argenteuil, a village on the
Seine near
Paris, and here were painted some of his best known works.
</event>
start to latestStart define the fuzzy beginning, and earliestEnd to end
define the fuzzy ending.
Hope that helps,
David
