Notification escalate too fast if no one notified

[Ethan Galstad]

I was thinking the same, although I was thinking more along the lines 
of a global directive in the main config file.  A host/service-
specific option in the notification options would allow a finer level 
of control, but I think a global variable might be sufficient for 
most people.  Thoughts on this?  I have a lot of catchup patching to 
do this weekend, so I can add this feature at the same time.
