/**
* Returns a list of start dates in the specified period represented by this recur. This method includes a base date
* argument, which indicates the start of the fist occurrence of this recurrence. The base date is used to inject
* default values to return a set of dates in the correct format. For example, if the search start date (start) is
* Wed, Mar 23, 12:19PM, but the recurrence is Mon - Fri, 9:00AM - 5:00PM, the start dates returned should all be at
* 9:00AM, and not 12:19PM.
