[nfbcs] Calendar

Thu Jan 12 14:08:12 UTC 2012

Thanks Dean.  I'll keep it in mind.

I just installed the free planner from blindsoftware.com.  It's a
sweetener to get one to sign up for their newsletter, but I'm interested
in their stuff, so that's OK.
The planner seems to be exactly what I wanted.  It sits quietly in my
system tray.  I set a couple notes and reminders, and it was very easy.
I've bought a few things from blindsoftware.com, and I've been happy with it.

Thanks guys for the suggestions.
