Prevent iCal from repopulating via synched data

Due to some issue in my calendar, iCal sometimes gets very confused, refusing to handle the To Dos, export entries, or generally play ball at all. My calendar is synced with my phone, and if I try to start from scratch by deleting ~/Library -> Application Support -> iCal, when I restart iCal it finds all the entries again.

If this happens to you, you can remove the iSync cache by deleting ~/Library -> Application Support -> SyncServices -> Local -> data.syncdb. Maybe you'd better back it up first, just in case, but for me this solves the problem. I can then repopulate iCal from my phone.
