Done, this seemed to work.

I probably don't understand why the mit_frozen_flag would be NULL and not
have either a Yes or a No value.

Here is another issue.  When closing a log, we should update the closed
date and maybe by whom.

The same should probaby be true of the change to pending, maybe we should
update the modified by field.
