Hi tom,

In the alarm.py how would I put the None check in the code rather than make 
the expression have the check code.

I think it's on this line:
if eval(self.expression, None, record):                       # NOTE 3

Would it be:
if record is not None and eval(self.expression, None, record):              
         # NOTE 3

I am not a python programmer by the way. That way if any expression that 
could be none would be covered. IE you could put in rain > 0.0

Thanks
