A follow up:  I restarted hobbit and repeated the experiement, turning 
off bbc on my client and waiting for 30 mins until it was put into a 
purple status.  Then I took one of the ACK codes from my purple alert 
emails and it work just as expected, disabling paging for the time 
duration I entered and displaying the text message that I entered. 
Tested putting a "-" in front of the ACK code and it acknowledged all 
the purples for the host, so that's a neat little trick.

I cannot explain why this didn't work the first times that I tried it, 
but I swear it didn't.
