Hmm, weird, I thought I just replied to this, but i can find the reply.

At any rate, I have isolated the problem:

02-mystuff.rem begins with the following two reminders:

REM AT 17:00 RUN $NOTIFY 'start dinner' %
REM AT 18:00 RUN $NOTIFY 'DINNERTIME' %

Moving these to the *end* of the file causes the banner to reappear.

$NOTIFY is an envar set on this machine to:

/usr/bin/notify-send -t 0 Reminder

which pops up a message dialog.
