I guess I'll have to hack it further since I don't have a "log" per  
se and need only the disc* copy that received the write request to  
dump it.

Suppose that all the nodes dump their log to the same database table  
on some database server. If all the nodes do this for every request  
than the same transaction will be posted by every node which is  
redundant and possibly erroneous.

	Thanks, Joel
