I am upstream. I'm hoping to get a Wyrd release out the door in about
the next week, and that will include a fix for this bug. Could someone
take a few minutes to verify that this development snapshot corrects the

I can confirm this. Workaround is:
1) copy /etc/wyrdrc to .wyrdrc in your home directory

'$HOME/.reminders' doesn't help.
