Summary: logging module documentation

Initial Comment:
I believe the logging module documentation needs to give an 
example of how to simply log to a file. The following example snippet 
could be appropriate: 
 
import logging 
logger = logging.getLogger('myapp') 
hdlr = FileHandler('/var/myapp/debug.log') 
hdlr.setFormatter(Formatter('%(asctime)s %(level)s %(message)s')) 
logger.addHandler(hdlr) 
logger.setLevel(DEBUG)

Why was this closed? nnorwitz's doc fixes, as seen in CVS or 
http://www.python.org/dev/doc/devel/lib/module-logging.html
have no examples section.  

Running the current logging module docs past a number of 
python coders here produced a consistent "what the heck?"
response - the opening introduction provides no indications of
how to use the package. 
This is a problem for me, right now, so I'm re-opening and
assigning to myself to fix.

review for accuracy and completeness?
