I have a feeling you're seeing an artifact of some oddities in how the
alerts module matches up events and paging rules. You can see my

Yes, it looks like you're right Alan. I really think the alerts module needs
a bit of a rewrite... I've already posted about several flaws in it over the
past year... It just doesn't seem to be possible to get it doing what I want
(and expect) for several different tests / scenarios (at the same time).

Would tend to agree, due to issues with RECOVERED and DURATION
processing, and the seeming conflict of interest between the alerts and
the flap suppression algorithms. I have on occasion considered
outboarding the alert processing, and just having Hobbit send alerts for
anything to a custom script, where I could exert finer control.
