So, I see that Jim Wirthlin is on the staff there. I knew him at Coniah in the 70's. He was a nice guy. I wondered what became of him. A few years after I left the walk, I ran into him at a Franklin Planner class that we were both taking. In both cases the class was funded by or respective companies but I now wonder (with some of the comments about the Franklin Planners noted here) if perhaps Jim brought that concept into TLW? It isn't a bad methodology, actually if you actually use it as designed (and your personal organizational "work style" fits its use).
My problem was that Franklin never really worked for me and after trying the planner, the Palm Pilot, the Pocket PC, and currently the iPad/iPhone, I am back to a simple lab notebook with a daily "To Do" list supplemented by a paper calendar hainging on the wall :-). Is Franklin Covey still in business?
Speaking of the To Do list, I will get back to the people who PM'd me. The last week, I have been focused on resurrecting my PC. It turns out that my HDD was attacked by Nephliam (or maybe just by "Monsters from the id). Anyway, I now can confirm that the old saying is true -- there are only two types of hard drives: 1.) those that have failed and 2.) those that haven't failed (yet). Fortunately, I am retired now with time to mess with computers and had a good file backup system in place. Now, in addition to file back up, I will have drive images as well.
