Hi Malcolm,

Thanks for responding.

Here is what I have:

#+FILETAGS OFFICE
#+OPTIONS: toc:0 H:4

* Organization
:LOGBOOK:
CLOCK: [2016-09-01 Thu 20:42]--[2016-09-01 Thu 20:43] =>  0:01
CLOCK: [2016-09-01 Thu 07:55]--[2016-09-01 Thu 07:56] =>  0:01
CLOCK: [2016-08-31 Wed 15:51]--[2016-08-31 Wed 15:54] =>  0:03
CLOCK: [2016-08-31 Wed 10:02]--[2016-08-31 Wed 10:36] =>  0:34
CLOCK: [2016-08-31 Wed 08:45]--[2016-08-31 Wed 09:09] =>  0:24
CLOCK: [2016-08-30 Tue 14:08]--[2016-08-30 Tue 14:09] =>  0:01
CLOCK: [2016-08-30 Tue 10:24]--[2016-08-30 Tue 10:25] =>  0:01
CLOCK: [2016-08-29 Mon 10:56]--[2016-08-29 Mon 11:08] =>  0:12
:END:
:PROPERTIES:
:CLOCK_MODELINE_TOTAL: today
:id: eb155a82-92b2-4f25-a3c6-0304591af2f9
:END:

This line is in my .emacs:

(defvar bh/organization-task-id "eb155a82-92b2-4f25-a3c6-0304591af2f9")

If I type:

C-u C-c C-x C-i 3

The clock starts on the * Organization task. So I assume the ID must not
be the problem.

The clock time above were all started with the cursor on the *
Organization task, except the top one which was started with C-u C-c C-x
C-i 3
