[Nodebrain-users] This just does not make since.......!

[<gh...@rl...>]

OK, I just am not getting it,  NodeBrain does not respond the way I would
except from reading the manual.
Here I set a rule, then I alert a number of time. When the rule condition
become true the rule fires.  Then
the rule fire for each alert after that, even though there are no variablse
that are alerted in the rule!!!!!!!

What's up........
