Michael,

Thanks, I think I'll start linking to Names cards instead of Notes,
since that seems to support the two way linking I'm looking for.
OPening the names app to get my context lists is still faster than
firing up my cell phone or browser and looking online.

And thanks for the tip on Lifebalance. I might give it a test drive,
but I think the Names scheme will work well for me since I need the
ability to link to and from anything.
