I remember a thread where this was discussed at length a few months back. I'll 
see if I can find it when I'm back at the computer. Definitely recall odd 
behaviors when using both start and due dates in the same task.

Interesting - you're right. That exact text parses correctly. 

Where it starts to struggle is if I have both start and due dates, then add a 
reminder. The problem is if you use phrases, because it often stops parsing 
before reading the whole phrase. For a start, the -s and -d switches shouldn't 
have spaces after them: 
"Call Jim -sTuesday -dThursday remind Wednesday" works
"Call Jim -s Tuesday -d Thursday" doesn't work - both the start and due date 
get set to Thursday. 
"Call Jim -sTuesday -dThursday remind Wednesday" works
"Call Jim -sTuesday -dThursday remind 1 hour in advance" diesn't work - it sets 
the reminder to 1 hour from now. 

This deserves more research and experimentation but, in the meantime, thank 
goodness for ctrl-Z to undo!
