I couldn't remember either, but remembered that I wrote it down in an old
notebook, and it didn't take too long to find it. Since then I've switched to a
computer notebook system with everything based on the Find operation: Write
notes to myself in text files, with long and descriptive filenames, so a search
can find the info again via the natural keywords in the filenames. I used to try
to organize the files into subfolders and categories, but that gets to be too
much trouble after awhile. So the only way is to dump them into an archive
folder somewhere, and retrieve them is via the Find operation.  The only
negative is that after working in those files awhile, the hard drive gets
horribly fragmented and Windows Explorer slows down to a snails pace, so
frequent defrags are required. The next step (I'm close) will be that after
accumulating 500+MB of such files, to put them on a CD(s).  Anyway... It's
necessary to have an auxiliary memory system of some kind as I approach 61 years
young!?  Just can't remember things like I used to...
