[Logic] Spot log

[C.M. Christensen]

Yes this is exactly what is happening Ron. It has been doing this for a 
long time. I also mentioned it to Dennis.  I usually just dump the spot 
log often or whenever I notice the problem. It is sort of maddening when 
you see a spot of something you need and before you can read any of the 
information it is gone, hi.
