[EventCalendar] QUESTION: Filtering The Loop for Events by Event Date; not Posting Date

[firetree_ec3 at spamex.com]

Actually, I'll un-correct myself. The problem was the individual  
lists (single.php) not the aggregate lists (archive.php). When the  
events are browsed in a single list, they are arranged by posting  
date, not event date. I had missed this because I deliberately  
disabled the next/prev buttons when browsing events (because of this  
problem).

I'll keep looking for the solution...
