Why is querylog enabled after restart?

When my nameserver (BIND 9.3.0) is (re)started (i.e. after boot) it 
automagically runs with query logging ON:

/# rndc status
number of zones: 411
debug level: 0
xfers running: 1
xfers deferred: 0
soa queries in progress: 1
query logging is ON
recursive clients: 20/1000
tcp clients: 0/100
server is up and running


I've got a channel that writes query logs to file for debug purposes, but I 
only want this to happen when I turn on query logging my self. If the server 
boots during the evening the disk is pretty full when I arrive next morning.

Is there an option I can set in named.conf that will ensure that query logging 
is OFF after start?
