Hi Barry,

Different timers.

I don't know. It would be difficult:
- in happens only once or twice per day
- the timers depend on my personal environment: checking email, news,
  Bitcoin value, the todo-list of my org-file and so on
- some timers depend on idle-time

Would it help, if I a add some code to the start and to the end of each
timer function, that prints interesting information to the *Messages*
buffer? And when it happens again, we would get some trace?
