Subject: Recovery notification sent on transition from red to clear?

I have an http content check running which works fine.  It shows red
if the content is wrong, clear if it can't be obtained due to a conn
failure.  But it sends a recovery alert for the content check when
conn fails:
----------------------
Subject: Hobbit host.domain.com:check recovered

clear Wed Jan  2 00:51:23 2008: Failed to get webpage

An error occurred while testing <a href="http://site/url">URL
http://site/url</a>

No output received from server
----------------------

When the conn check again works, another critical notification is sent
for the content check.  Doesn't it seem that a transition to "clear"
shouldn't be considered a "recovery"?

Thanks.
Lee.
