Smart::Comments is very useful for debugging, but not so good for permanent logging as it uses a source filter which most people elect not to use in production code.

Examine what is said, not who speaks -- Silence betokens consent -- Love the truth but pardon error.

    Thanks BrowserUk. As I noted in my Update to my original post, I tend to use logging more for flexibilitly in capturing script results rather than for debuggin. So your observation is especially appropo to my challenge. Thanks so much. Yours and saberworks's thread was really intersting and enlightening for me.
