Review it again, see how many quotes you are using.
For example, this won't work either:

Hi Evert,
Thank you. I should have figured "groups" were the paren groups. I see it
clearly now. And your solution will work for the larger thing I'm trying to

And yes: I know this matches some non-date-like dates, but the data is such
that it should work out ok.
Thanks again,
