don't count on this... on ar-cluster the only record of that command would be 
in the debug files, since those get big quickly there are not usually kept 
around very long.  i don't know if other clusters keep records of stuff like 
that or not.  

and of course this assumes that the log checker can find all the nodes that you 
might be connected to, even if you login with a fake callsign as at least one 
user was found to be doing this weekend....  That is one i didn't put in the 
spotting report but probably should have.  Another sysop contacted me asking me 
what to do with a user connection that logged in with a non-existant call.  
While its possible that the call was issued friday but hadn't shown up in the 
on-line logs yet, it was doubly suspicious that it was a stateside call but the 
isp was from ontario.
