Determine if this TraceLevel object represents a level that is higher than some other
TraceLevel object.  For the purposes of the comparison OFF is considered a higher level
than SEVERE, and FINEST is the lowest level.
@param other the <code>TraceLevel</code> object to compare this with.
@return <code>true</code> if the level represented by this <code>TraceLevel</code>
object is a higher level than the level represented by the specified
<code>TraceLevel</code> object, <code>false</code> otherwise.
@throws NullPointerException if <code>other</code> is <code>null</code>.
