Interesting idea!!

Thanks

BTW, reading your other mail and pondering on the laundry labels some more, 
haven't come up with anything yet though.

  You either have to re-do the label, or add another beside the original.  For 
example, if you have a CD label which has the title and artist, that may 
normally be enough;  but you may like a further label with all track listing.  
You can then get various information from both labels.  Of course, you can 
listen to the title and artist, then stop the pen before reading to the end by 
placing it either on a blank label or one with little linformation but this is 
a bit silly, perhaps.

  I can see some benefits in using two labels.  Another one may be 
correspondence, where sometimes you only want to know what it is and at other 
times you need to re-read the whole thing.
