Bug-report to Apple, on iCal:

``Normally on the Mac where an object on the screen has a contextual
menu available, that is accessed by right-clicking. In iCal, to
add an additional alarm to an event, you have to LEFT click on the
word "alarm". Right-clicking does nothing.

``Whether that's a bug or a design flaw depends on whether that's
deliberate or not, but I've been using this OS since it was called
"NeXTSTep" and it didn't even occur to me to LEFT-click on a word
that had no 3d cues to indicate that it was a button. I right
clicked, nothing happened, and so I assumed iCal didn't support
multiple alarms until talking about it with another Mac user after
a meeting I was late to.''

I can just hear some hateful begger at Apple saying "Well, the Human
Interface Guidelines are only guidelines".
