Hi LuKreme,

Yes, you are right.  To answer my original question, I should have logged in 
from an admin account.  I didn't even think of that, probably because I never 
had to do that pre-Lion.  Before installing Lion, I could see the "backupd" 
logs (and probably all logs) from a non-admin account.  Was this an intentional 
(perhaps security related) change in Lion?

By the way, in case anyone is curious, I logged into an admin account and 
(obviously) the "backupd" entries were now visible.  The good news is that my 
Time Machine backups are currently only taking 32 seconds!

Thanks,

Gregg
