Yes. It receives a 0 from libOFX and then continues from there on. Somewhere 
down the line there must be a subtraction (timezone, I have no idea yet) that 
causes the date to be the last day of 1969. In case of a missing DTEND (not 
DTSTOP) one could search for the last date of a valid transaction or some 
such. Anyway, it seems that DTSTART and DTEND are optional even in responses.
