Thanks for applying the patch. Yes, I think one of the FAQs nicely
cautions against using org-diary (i.e., "think twice before using it!").
My only use for it at the moment is to pass org data to the cal-tex
functions. I certainly wouldn't recommend using org-diary to mark
calendar dates!

Thanks for making this change. I can see that 3 seconds is a better
value, especially since I set the value of org-diary-last-run-time
before the rest of the function runs.

Best,
Matt
