I'm reasonably sure this has been discussed in the archives.  Personally I
go by topic, but I know others go by author.  I also have several author
files for voluminous writers like Jack Newman, Paula Meier, Gene C.
Anderson.  My files are in need of a basic reorganization, some files are
getting way too fat, need to be subdivided, thinned.

Another ploy I used was adopting the topics from LLLI -CBI (La Leche League
Int-Center for Breastfeeding Information).  This gives you about 200 topics
to start with !!!  And believe it or not I have some topics that they don't!

Of course when I was hunting for my passport today in my personal files it
wasn't under ID!  Found it 2 files away - oh well :-)  Sincerely, Pat in SNJ
