I see. I just saw your note from 2003:
http://lists.apple.com/archives/Applescript-users/2003/Nov/msg00673.html
and filed a bug report. :-}

*sigh* Okay, maybe a Tiger upgrade would be worth it at this point. (Is
10.5 in beta yet?) I could really make use of basic iCal access without
having access to the GUI. I rarely have my 'book at work, but am generally
ssh-ed into it. Being able to add and display events & todos from the shell
would be very useful.

This is good news.

My apologies. It didn't occur to me that it would be a bug in iCal. I
thought I was just doing something wrong (looking for the wrong property or
going about getting that bit of information the wrong way).
