Hi Matt,

Yup, I am refreshing the agenda with r, or usually g. In the agenda,
when I first mark the item as done, the text of the heading turns green,
but when I next refresh, the text turns back to black. These completed
todos are still there even if I close the agenda and re-invoke it.

Of course:

'(org-agenda-custom-commands (quote (("c" "Agenda plus contacts"
((agenda "" nil) (tags-todo "TODO=\"CONTACT\"" nil) (tags-todo
"TODO=\"REPLY\"" nil)) nil nil) ("g" "Get It Louder" ((agenda "" nil)
(tags-todo "Gil" nil)) nil))))

The problem occurs in both my "Agenda plus contacts" and "Get It
Louder", so maybe it's something with my custom todos?

(org-todo-keywords (quote ((sequence "TODO(t)" "WAITING(w@)" "|"
"DONE(d)" "CANCELLED(c@)") (sequence "CONTACT(n)" "REPLY(r)" "|"
"CONTACTED(e@)"))))

But I don't see how that could be interpreted as anything but CONTACTED
= done...

Thanks!
