# Notes #
####################
# For some reason, Omit doesn't like having a day in it's definition.
# You can get around this limitation by using REM without a message.
# If the rem has `SATISFY 1` in its definition, it will always be run and Trigdate
# will be set.
# You can then use Trigdate (or %T) in the omit definition
