Thats not what the patches do.
If VERBOSE=0 a start will generate 3-5lines of code. (Down from 10)
If VERBOSE=-1 it will be quiet.
If VERBOSE=1 a start will generate the same as today
(Except "Running script...")

Incrementing logger(..) and LOG_LEVEL, will not touch default output.
And will give option for VERBOSE=0 or --verbose=0

An option. It stille requires some logger(0, ...) -> logger(1, ...),
as I don't want "no output" but more quiet output.
