Description
In #833 @jdamerow and @christophernhill added a repeating event, fixing the calendar so we have community calls alternate Thursdays and Fridays
This works as intended but @cmaimone @exoticDFT noticed that it can look like there are duplicate events, e.g. in this build artifact: https://output.circle-artifacts.com/output/job/65559ca9-11aa-496c-bba3-a9f0279ba5f3/artifacts/0/usrse.github.io/events/index.html
This is true on the live page as of posting this issue (https://us-rse.org/events/) but if you click on them you can see one is the June call on a Friday and the other is July on Thursday.
One solution might be to changed the title / text on the two repeating events so they didn't appear to be repeating.
For example, we could change the title of the original event to be "Bimonthly Community Call on Thursday" and the title of the one that was added to "Bimonthly on Friday" or something like that.

Research direction
Start with the generated events/index.html artifact and compare the two alternating community call entries shown there. Locate the source event definitions that produce those entries, update their titles or text so the Thursday and Friday calls are distinguishable, then verify the events page no longer makes them look like duplicates.
