Is a calendar tabular data, logically meriting table markup?

What do you do when you're debranded?
In terms of presentation, probably.
In terms of data, no.
Think about it. If you were setting up a calendar in a database, which
has tables composed of rows and columns, you would set it up in the
usual tabular format we are used to seeing. Instead, you would
probably have rows corrosponding to events and columns corresponding
to event details, which would include items like year, month, day,
date, hour, and so on. In fact, you would likely use your databases
date-time datatype.
Don't confuse display with the underlying data.
