Thanks for the suggestion.  I guess this would solve the "problem" but
I actually find it quite useful to have the time stamp in my remember
generated notes/todos as it helps me keep track of when I initiated
things on busy days!  But the granularity provided by time probably is
too small so days alone are probably enough.

Thanks again,
eric
