Like I said, look for a transaction with the datestamp of "Sun Aug 25
08:02:23 2013", I.e, "2013-08-25 08:02:23". I don't recall whether the
logfile is going to print in localtime or GMT, so the '08" might be off.

Yes, like I said, find the transaction with the above timestamp, and
then look at that transaction and whatever is *next* in your datafile.

You're welcome to send it to me.
