Drupal's IRC bot.module and Druplicon now support reminders

Every so often I'll ask Druplicon to remind me about something in the future, and then curse that I haven't yet written such functionality. Then everyone points and laughs at little ol' Morbus. Welp, NO MORE LAUGHING as that code has hit the CVS and Druplicon just now. From the integrated help: Reminders can be set with "BOTNAME: remind NICK (at|by|in|on) DURATION (about|how|that|to) MESSAGE". For example: "BOTNAME: remind Morbus in 1 hour and 6 minutes that his bot is awesome", "BOTNAME: remind me in 23 minutes to check my pot roast.", or even "BOTNAME: remind Monty on Wed, 12 May 2010 13:10:21 -0400 that this was when this code debuted."

Some examples:

<Morbus> Druplicon: remind me in 5 minutes to celebrate.
<Druplicon> Morbus: I'll remind you about that on Wed, 12 May 2010 13:32:55 -0400.
    (time passes)
<Druplicon> Morbus: You asked me to remind you to celebrate.

<EvanDonovan> Druplicon: remind me in 7 hours that I should still be working :(
<Druplicon> EvanDonovan: I'll remind you about that on Wed, 12 May 2010 20:17:34 -0400.

<Morbus> Druplicon: remind me by next week that this feature debuted!
<Druplicon> Morbus: I'll remind you about that on Wed, 19 May 2010 13:34:41 -0400.
