Cumbersome? Not necessarily. The problem with any of these filing methods (and
obviously one that I'll have to overcome if I intend to solve my bigger problem)
is getting to that system.  I wonder if anyone has ever started a business based
on straightening out other people's filing systems? Hmmm. Me starting a business
like that would be like me starting a cleaning business....

Seriously, I guess I need to just devote a few days to doing nothing but making
sense of my files. Rationally, I realize that I will be better off in the long
run and will save hours of time now spent saying "What did I do with that?" And,
right now I do have so much junk in my files that is less than worthless. Some
of it is there just because it made me mad to read it. Kinda like the 20/20 show
the other week.

Did anybody else get the form letter reply from them? It said something to the
effect that due to the volume of mail from the bf bit they couldn't answer each
one so they were using a form letter. And the only thing on the form other than
thanks for writing was the address for LLLI and Compleat Mother. This leads me
to believe a lot of people must have written asking for these addresses because
they somehow realized they might get something good from them (in spite of the
show). Or, they were incensed that the show neglected to give out such basic
info and wrote to complain. I wonder if the people who wrote from the
bottle-feeder-who-has-been-hassled viewpoint got the same letter or if they got
one with formula coupons in it. I'd be tempted to write a glowing letter to see
what happens. With my luck, they would read that one on the air....

Ah well. Today is tax day. I can hardly wait. I'll spare y'all the "I hate tax"
speech. Have a nice day! Thanks for the info.
