You and Ed have provided excellent answers to a question that I did

I assumed that most people who read this group would use a computer to
store the type of personal information that I outlined in my second
paragraph. I hoped that they had used one of the unwieldy address
books that come with most popular PIMs and email clients and they had
thought about a better way of organizing the data.

Perhaps I provided too much information about the way I saw the
problem and its complications. I should just have asked how you would
model the data for _your_ personal information database.
