Sorry, "agenda search isn't working" = "my memory can't figure out what term to search for" :) I just mean that sometimes what I write down at t=0 can't anticipate what impression the event will have in my mind (and, therefore, what words I'll search for) at t=X. Does that make sense? I just wondered if tags/categories/other attributes in a "brain-like" pattern might help provide some additional navigation options to help with this.
