Printing a Paper Backup of Your iCloud Contacts

From today's New York Times:  Printing a Paper Backup of Your iCloud Contacts.

Folks are sometimes amazed when I pull out my long-treasured filofax.

Why does someone who worked on the first Personal Information Manager and the first group scheduler still use PAPER?

Simple.  Every calendar server and calendar client at Sumatra can become test data with no notice at all.  It's a principle as ingrained as our minimum two brain rule.

Paper doesn't suddenly disappear in a software meltdown.

We still haven;t added contacts to our Apple iCalendar to Exchange migration, but it also does not seem to be a big issue to anyone in a migration phase right now.
