There are also my diary add-ons that allow me to hit C-x C-d in a
buffer and get planner-style prompts and annotations.  i.e.

from Chris Parsons on gmane.emacs.wiki.general]] 

was created in the email buffer for this post.  C-x C-d and then a
planner style prompt for the date and an entry for time.  I never see
the diary file.

There is no rescheduling.  But I prefer to keep tasks and appointments
separate, so this works well for me.

Cheers,  Jody
