Great, this seems to have worked like a charm.  I was worried that the *.notice would
have a higher priority than the daemon.warning (aka I would continue to receive
daemon.notice messages) but that is apparently not the case.

The man page is right:

"The effects of multiple selectors are sometimes not intuitive."

But thanks for the help - it looks like it's working the way I want it.
