Ah, that makes sense. So it was just an unfortunate time/timezone that I randomly chose that pushed the beginning-of-time into make-remind-cranky territory > You should be using evaltrig() rather than trig() for the case at hand, I ended up going a different route (which, after I pushed Send, I saw that you had also proposed a similar tzconvert() solution), so it's largely irrelevant since nothing of note actually broke.
