I have tried paper calendars of sorts on occasion. Doesn't work for me
as I miss the luxury of scheduling re-occuring events, grouping types
of events together, easily adjusting day/time/duration of event. And
of course the biggest reason - audible reminder so I don't have to
constantly watch the clock. I have a lot on my plate (football, base
ball practice/games x 2, band x 2, scouts x 2, etc, etc) to all magically
make to their events on a timely basis. Paper just doesn't cut it for me.

Hmmm, I haven't explored that angle. I looked many years ago. Back
then, they were all bulky ugly as can be and most required Mr. Bill's
"service". There were some that did data xfer via watching lines on
a monitor. Thanks for the idea.
