Nope, at least not in my tests. Two simple scripts:

on mouseup
  global sendID
  cancel sendID
  put fld "TheTime" into timer
  if timer is not empty then
    send reminder to this stack in timer*60 seconds
    put the result into sendID
  end if
end mouseup

on reminder
  global SendID
  
  put fld "TheTime" into timer
  send reminder to me in timer*60 seconds  
  put the result into sendID
  play "chime2.wav"
end reminder

After it executes the mouseup, it just waits for the send to come back. 
That's it!

Now in the real world, I've got a mousemove handler that controls the 
cursor and I'll have to look at this later. But for my test, I didn't 
touch the PC for several hours, so it should have never been evoked.
