Remove debug-oriented code in the PR?

Trivial: there are more than double spaces after the symbols?

The case statement allows an else case, which would allow all of the "legs" of it to be the last expression of the method = to return the value from the method = to drop the return keyword.

this is commented out?

This would be really useful functionality. @benlangfeld or @javan is this something you're interested in merging if I clean up the PR? |
|
I like the idea. If it can be cleaned up, I’ll take a look more closely. |
|
thanks @benlangfeld. I started working on this over at this branch. I have this patch mostly cleaned up but have found a couple other issues with it. I will check back in with a PR when I either get it sorted or am ready to beg for help. thanks! |

If you use the Symbol-Shortcut (:hour or :day at the moment) and leave the at-argument blank, the exact time of execution will be randomized.
This can reduce the load, when multiple jobs run hourly, for example.
