I just misread the grabber code, I don't think myth will drop anything
(except perhaps things actually in the past). In any case I think it is
working as intended, i.e. fetching N days worth in 24hr increments
(whichever 24hr span it happens to be, it'll line up into a continuous
span), is that right?
