I am, I suppose, somewhere in the middle of the pack when it comes desk organization. Somewhere, that is, between a "compulsive." whose desk is clean except for a small symmetrical pile of papers beside a cup of well-sharpened pencils, and a "chaotic." whose workspace looks like the emptied-out contents of a half dozen waste-paper baskets. The problem, of course, is how to impose some organization on the mountain of things you really should read or think about. I mean, where do you even start? I used to have the same problem when it came to describing the U.S. financial environment.
