You mean you don't trust the alert summary on the "info" column page?

I've had a task for sometime now to generate an "Incident" reporting
feature, where you get a chronological summary of what happened 
during an incident: When it started, when it was acknowledged, what
alerts were sent out, when it recovered. This basically means picking
out data from several logs, including the notifications logfile.

Would that cover your needs also?
