 Description:
 
-TestLogStorage is a threaded implementation of an application that takes a dummy
-sensor readings of a counter, logs it flash, and then sends it out over the
-serial port at some later time. In the current implementation, each sensor reading is
-taken once every 3000ms, and records containing a set of readings from each
-iteration are batched out over the radio every 10000ms.  This application is
-very similar to the SenseStoreAndForward application contained in this same
-directory, except that it is written using a dummy sensor value instead of
-sensors specific to the tmote onboard suite. In this way, the LogStorage
-functionality can be tested in conjunction with the sending facility in a
-platform independent way.

 Since the TestLogStorage mote writes its records out to the serial
 port, you can test that the application is working properly by reading these
-packets (e.g., through seriallisten) and checking that they have reasonable
-values, counting up from 0. E.g.:

 NOTE:  The baud rate 57600 must be used telos based motes, as its configuration
 has been changed to work with this baud rate when compiled for tosthreads. I.e.
