Need to keep developing this list. I have to locate another hard copy listing that I have worked on. DONE. The handwritten list did not have viable ideas. This list is becoming unwieldy. Maybe I'll export to excel, sort and then copy back here. I'll do that later tonight. Just finished the alpha sort. DONE. Now, all I have to do is to try to keep the list sorted as I add new ideas.
