The moleskine notebooks are VERY nice and I love the construction
quality and feel of them.  Unfortunately, this exact feature kept me
From using what ended up being the most effective strategy.  When I'm
being good and keeping analog and org in sync, it's because I am
making one note per page and indiscriminately tearing them out of my
notebook as I process them.  Nowadays I keep a cheaper flimsier notebook
in my back pocket at all times [1].  In addition to letting me
guiltlessly destroy the thing, it's also more comfortable to sit on.

I don't have a great system for going back the other direction, but am
at my computer often enough to make that process less important to me.
