Q: Where are the "Reminders" reminders kept on Mac?
Today I was going through the Reminders application on my Mac and decided to delete the default Reminders list and make some new ones. What I hadn't expected was for the "Completed" list, which has many dates and such that I like to refer to, to delete as well. Additionally, Reminders was set up through iCloud, so it seems that it's permenantly gone.
However, I have Time Machine backups of my computer, and I imagine that the Reminders must be stored on the computer because iCloud just does the syncing (right?). So I'm wondering if anyone knows where the Reminders are kept on the Mac because I could then restore the original Reminders list.
If you could help me, I would be eternally grateful to you! Thanks for any help in advance.
MacBook Pro, OS X Mountain Lion

They're stored in your username/Library/Calendars/ folder, as part of the calendar services for the various accounts you add in the system preferences. They're standard .ics calendar files, but are named by rather cryptic looking UUIDs so they will be rather difficult to identify in the Finder.
