He's too obsessively anal for that. > I can't actually think of too many apps that would be useful only in an > emergency and only in an emergency Me neither. Tho you can certainly make a case for having icons for the stuff you do use in an emergency in a single emergency folder where they are all grouped together and where you can see them all at once, in a system which allows duplicate icons for the stuff that is useful in an emergency. > since they come in an infinite number of forms. Not really that infinite. > Personally I keep a 'daily' screen, a 'news and information' screen, a > 'travel' screen, and an 'entertainment' screen. I don’t myself, I have the one main screen and have a few folders on that for the groups of stuff like banks and other financial institutions like credit unions, clouds, shopping etc, basically so that I do almost everything from that one main screen. > Guess I could move some stuff around and have 'emergency' one at the end. I think its better to have an emergency folder on the main screen for those who can get flustered in an emergency. I don’t, so don’t bother myself. > Just me, I guess... I'd be surprised if some don’t do it that way too. That's essentially what <he of a thousand names> was asking, who does what, and why do they do it the way they do.

He dresses up an excuse to argue or 'show-off' as a question. He is never interested in getting other people's opinions unless they chime with his preconceptions.

Even sillier than you usually manage.
