Thanks for the reply. I did an initial read of the page and it looks 
interesting. That being said, I'm going to have to take a few more 
passes to make sure I understand it.

If I read correctly, it isn't a replacement for logging to 
/var/log/messages, just a way to filter those logs into another log that 
only gets what I want to see?
