Right.  However, the problem with this method is that if you have an
activity like "Watch & Listen", that doesn't translate well into an
environment variable :)

The name is also based on what you call "logger.start(<foo>)" with, not
actually the activity name.  What I'd really like to do is push down the
server name to the logger instead, and then do something like

ORG_LAPTOP_SUGAR_DEBUG
ORG_LAPTOP_SUGAR_BROWSE_DEBUG

etc
