We synchronize with Apple's Sync Services; if we modify the data, it  
propagates back to Sync Services which it turn goes to .Mac and every  
other application/device that synchronizes with Sync Services. So,  
while it may seem like an easy task, we could do it if it was  
acceptable to mess up the events on all your other devices/applications.
