As I'm [not the only one](VividCortex#70) who stumbled upon this, let's just add a comment to the example code. No logging library I have worked with goes as far as terminating the program, so many go beginners may not understand this - although I think it does make sense. (Otherwise - what's the meaning of "fatal"?)

There was a problem hiding this comment.
True, just like any deferred function, rows.Close won't be called if the application aborts. Not sure why this would be a problem, though. Maybe we could change all log.Fatal to return? It's not the point in the example anyway. (See also the last paragraph here.)
