Thanks Vinay,

By adding a handler with a level of ERROR I fixed my problem.  Things
are starting to make sense.  I just feel like a logger should filter
out any messages below its error level instead of sending them to its
handlers.  But that is obviously not the case.  I just need to get used
to it.
