parse("Send those four emails before leaving work today by 1800") is wrong

[jminjie]

Calling parse() on the input text "Send those four emails before leaving work today by 1800" returns:

isAllDay: false
eventTitle: send those four emails leaving work
startDate: new Date(1900-01-01T08:00:00.000Z)
endDate: new Date(2018-06-05T01:00:00.000Z)

Which seems to be setting the start date based on the words "before" and "1800"

I'm happy to help fix this if someone can point me in the right direction.

You're on the right track. Sherlock is searching for "before" and if it finds that anywhere in the string, it returns a date range from "jan 1, 1900" to whatever date you entered. I think the fix should just require editing the more_than_comparator and less_than_comparator regex (lines 36-37) to only match if those words appear at the end of the string. Should be pretty straightforward.
