[BioC] log values of affybatch data

Does expresso ALWAYS return logged data?  For example, when calling the
LiWong algorithm using

expresso(data,normalize.method="invariantset",bg.correct=FALSE,
	pmcorrect.method="pmonly",summary.method="liwong")

does that return expression values on the log or original scale?
