Excess Calcium Intake

I saw a program on the news about calcium buildup in the heart. I take 1,000 mg of calcium every morning and have about 3 glasses of milk daily plus the milk on my large dish of cereal. Is this too much calcium? Is there any danger from taking in more calcium than you need? Can it cause calcium buildup in my heart?
