I find the CRC card approach quite nice here: those cards also capture 
major aspects without going in too much detail.  I rarely use them 
physically but I use the concept to remind myself of R and C.

Right.  That's also the reason why I prefer Visio with the free set of 
stencils for UML modeling over any other UML tool (especially those with 
a proper UML model in the background or even roundtrip engineering) 
because I can add visual elements not part of UML standard to help 
getting ideas across.

Same here.

I'd prefer strawberries - more space to write something. ;-)
