And while it kills trees, when starting a new project I print the
possibly 500 page data sheet (double sided) and put it in the project
notebook with other data sheets. I sprinkle it with Post-It(tm) notes.
Make notes in the margins. Highlight things. All sorts of things to
remind myself as to what decisions I made and why. Both for myself for
anyone in the future who may have to pick up the project and support it.
