Thanks! But I thought the +0d in "SCHEDULED: <2009-01-15 Thu +0d>"
means that I would be warned about this TODO item not 14 days or less
before the date, but only on the date itself. Maybe I should have
written +0, as per http://orgmode.org/org.html#Timestamps

I have a feeling this behaviour changed "recently" in org-mode. But
it is probably just me.
