Ideally, you should find out what is wrong with the imported data,  
maybe even narrowing it down to specific events. My (completely  
random) guess is that it is probably something concerning recurring  
events/exceptions and/or timezones. This way you can either not  
include those events in the import, or fix the data before import.

Otherwise, I don't have any other bright ideas.
