Thanks Kiki Novak!
Her thread about "notes" kicked me into unusual direction, to make
*some* order in my _mess_ of collected addresses, with the changes in
telephone
regular and mobile numbers and so on.
Some of those were recorded in arcane way with, then revered, Parker 51
(the golden one).
(Sorry, should not use this kind of reference in presence of "point and
click" generation)
So I went hunting for "knowde" and "tuxcards".
Got tuxcards.tgz, it installed itself on my box, but when called into
action complained about missing library.
I recalled that the source mentioned something about our beloved OS
earlier version.
Dived into collected mess in lower drawers and started pulling old(er)
distribution CD's.

Ended with a pile of CD's on my table.

This sight brought back a flash of memory, a visit to circus many years
back and a jongler spinning many plates on flexible sticks and running
frantically
on stage to keep them spinning.

Did not stop laughing since, goodby "order".

I promise to get serious later.

Still laughing.

Sorry to disappoint you, but I'm a 37-year-old male.

Maybe it's good to know you're not the only one with anachronistic
behaviour.

Cheers,

Niki

"We always learn" - a Hasidic proverb.

And I am so ancient that there is no need to translate "nom de plume"
for my use.

Have fun.

Stanislaw.
