(16,646 posts)I've got stuff from way back. Mostly yearbooks. Some old photos. Letters from various people. No calendars but I've never been much of a calendar user anyway.

(21,921 posts)They're records of events in my life. On several occasions, they've been helpful in reconstructing or remembering the sequence of events. Twice, my later calendars were useful with the IRS.
On the other hand, to answer your question, I guess I'm that anal retentive person!

(58,785 posts)great mementos. I know I still have a couple around in a box somewhere. But for busy people they'd be full of good information, even that far back. It surprised me at first that he still had it after all these years, but then I don't collect friends and contacts the way someone who took the DC-area prep school to Ivy League to rocket-trajectory career might. Or as someone who hoped to be important enough have biographies written about him might.
Both his parents were also no doubt records-oriented, working in the law, on the judiciary, and in the public sphere for various government and other organizations. Lots of politicking and working parties, I'm guessing.
Who knows? Maybe they'd be a little surprised that not everyone files their calendars.
