nf0 was kind enough to post the actual link to the Outlook patch in the forum. Thanks!

If you make Monday “meeting-free” but cram five days’ worth of meetings into the other four days of the week, you’re not helping the situation. You’re just rearranging deck chairs. The real change comes in figuring out how to make do with less meeting time, by taking advantage of alternatives when that makes sense, and by learning how to have more efficient meetings.

There is no law that says all meetings must be divisible into 30-minute increments just because your Outlook calendar defaults to that.)
