As can I.  As I mentioned in the initial bug ticket, the event imports
fine by itself; its only in the context of a larger calendar that it
fails.

Luckily, I had a sudden insight as I was poring over the events, trying to
find similarities and differences.  For some reason, a number of the events
have the same UID attribute; the reason Kronolith never barfs is that it's
able to add each one, overwriting the old event with the same UID.  (How
Sun Calendar Express can, in good faith, export a calendar with multiple
events with the same primary key is another question, one that I suspect
is far beyond the realm of mortals.)

With regards to fixing this: will it import okay if I just remove the UID:
attribute from each event?  Will Kronolith be smart enough to generate its
own UIDs, or do I need to come up with an algorithm to munge those myself?
