Impossible Database Design?

Hey,



I was just wondering if it is possible to create a database design
where you can have



    
  
  1.   Infinite repeating events like "every year, every last monday,..."

  
  2.   The possibility to test whether events overlap other events






I would say it is not possible since I would need to run an infinite
query to catch a singular event..


Any ideas?


What would be the 'nearest' approach?


Cheers,



Nikolai
