Re: minor bug on facts entry

[Toms <toms baugis gmail com>]

Hi Jorge!

Most of the time you will not see facts without end-times, but when
you do - feel free just to ignore them. That's what hamster does. It's
like - if i have disabled the preference to stop tracking on shutdown,
and shutdown computer and turn it on the next day, then i will have a
fact without end time, and i might not care about it. Or, if i do, i
will go back and fix it.
But until i don't care, the system shouldn't care either :)

I'm somewhat afraid about this whole exporter motion going on from all
directions. But, hell, may the best code win :)
Somebody could take courage and reconcile the bugs though.

Regards,
Toms
