That's exactly the case where I think the current code is illogical. If 
you set a movie to record over your vacation and the listings change, 
then it won't get recorded and the evidence of your previous schedule 
will disappear too, leaving you with no indication of what happened.

I don't think unsuccessful rules should delete automatically, whether 
they're a day old or a year old, until the user has a chance to review 
them and decide if they can reschedule the program with a new rule.
