David Allen's folders

It never fails-some marketing genius comes along and sours a good thing. I’m referring, of course, to the “Tickler file” for David Allen’s GTD. Forty bucks for a bunch of folders?? Classy looking it is, and It’s nice that they have the months of the year labeled in several different languages, but I only need to use one! Why not release the product in a French version, a German version, a Dutch version etc etc.

If you are a David Allen fanatic with money to burn it’s a nice looking trinket but I’m sticking with 43 manila folders and a file box for $15.
