facebook ics events bug

Raw

All .ics files exported from Facebook events appear (incorrectly) on the day prior to the event.

This event takes place all day on 08/26, in my neighborhood, in my time zone.

.ics export from facebook http://cl.ly/1a3d2b3L1P0V

inside the .ics file: DTSTART:20120825

Update

A friend exported the .ics from the same event and got this one, which has the correct DTSTART:20120826

Bug is weirder than I thought.
