True, but for development purposes, I think you can get away with it. The point is, though, that it works for the sessionCreated event, but it does not for the sessionDestroyed event. So I guess, the event never happens. And I would like to know why, and is there something that I can do to fix it. Then, I would make the change to log to the proper place.
