Actually this seem to work

new task -s2/2/17at10am -d 2/2/17at2pm rmd 9am

new task -s2/3/17at3pm -d 2/3/17at5pm rmd10min

So it seems like space before *-d *seem to be the key element here. if 
there is space before both -s and -d then dates seem to get messed up. 
Either way guess the parsing need to be smoothed out. 

Thanks Ray & Stéph
