    elog() is used to send messages to the front-end, and optionally
    terminate the current query being processed. The first parameter is an
-   elog level of NOTICE, DEBUG, ERROR, or FATAL. NOTICE prints on the
-   user's terminal and the postmaster logs. DEBUG prints only in the
-   postmaster logs. ERROR prints in both places, and terminates the
