It would help to run it through an (x)html validator first:

http://validator.w3.org.

I see this: <a class="url" href="/cgi-bin/events.cgi? 
key=200509021052&amp;action=getevent" class="summary">

Which is non-valid.

Also, you'll want to put in a real end-time, otherwise it can't  
really be displayed in anyone's calendars ('cause they're have a  
duration of 0).
