I was going to build a smarter alarm clock.  Then my wife went out and
bought a new clock (indpendently) that had the most important feature I
was looking for (two separate alarms) for about $20.  Took all the fun
out of it.

PS: I think a 16F84 would be ideal a project like this - it's got enough
EEPROM data memory to save those alarm times peranantly, too, perhaps
depending on whether you need two, three, or seven (four, six, or fourteen?)
different alarm settings.
