Having read the linked article, I see it is not relevant to Python, as Python's logging tool is
the writer/rotator program, thus no window for lost entries exists.

Yes, that is irritating.

Well, since this is a Python list, perhaps you could make sure your advice is also Python appropriate.  I appreciate 
diversions into general areas and learning new things, but your general claims were untrue when it comes to Python 
specifically, and that was unclear until I read your linked post.
