Hum, I tried to run this, and each subsequent time that I ran this,
keeping the same name for the log file (ie replacing it), AppleScript

Documents folder, AppleScript still asked about replacing the file. I
even went so far as to run it again after having put the file in the
trash and emptying the trash, but AppleScript still asked if I wanted
to replace the file. Each time, I got an error message "File file
...Documents:log.txt is already open.".
It always asks about replacing the file, if the file is already
there--just like any other save dialog. I couldn't duplicate your
problem with the old file moved to the trash.
It seems to me that you have another copy of a file with that name in
that folder, maybe from an earlier attempt with a script.

I've noticed lately that the paranoid fear of computers becoming
intelligent and taking over the world has almost entirely disappeared
from the common culture. Near as I can tell, this coincides with the
release of MS-DOS.
