Importing siphon.catalog messes up logging

[Hans-Christian Holm]

catalog.py configures logging on import, overriding any logging config set up by the client.

This line should be removed:

logging.basicConfig(level=logging.ERROR) 

I haven't looked for similar cases in other parts of the code.

I see that logging.basicConfig is being called in a lot of imports. A workaround example:

import logging
from siphon.catalog import Dataset, TDSCatalog
from siphon.ncss import NCSS
import importlib
importlib.reload(logging)

Hi, I ran into this issue as well recently.

import logging
from siphon.catalog import TDSCatalog

FORMAT = '%(asctime)s %(clientip)-15s %(user)-8s %(message)s'
logging.basicConfig(format=FORMAT)
logger = logging.getLogger(__name__)
logger.warning("Test This")

Will not work when TDSCatalog is imported.
