That's an interesting idea, although I hate "polluting" databases
with information that doesn't belong there.

If you do this, how do you keep things separated? For example, if I
want a Names folder for "Work", one for "Friends & Family", and one
that's "Projects", there's no real easy way to "show everything
that's not a project" is there? Unless you chuck all the names into
a single folder, I guess.

Thanks for pointing that out. It helps. Removing Calls helps quite
a bit, as I'm not likely to need it.

Still much to learn about MI...
