Re: tasks, clocks, and notes

[Subhan Michael Tindall <SubhanT@familycareinc.org>]

Try
'(org-log-note-clock-out t)

This gives you something like this:
* WORK break
This is my break log
   CLOCK: [2015-02-04 Wed 11:20]--[2015-02-04 Wed 11:30] =>  0:10
   - coffee
   CLOCK: [2015-02-04 Wed 09:52]--[2015-02-04 Wed 10:16] =>  0:24
   - coffee, walk
   CLOCK: [2015-02-03 Tue 09:35]--[2015-02-03 Tue 09:45] =>  0:10
   - walk

Now, now to get a coherent report out of them other than by looking at the TODO is not something I've worked out yet
