I tried several systems similar to what you described.
None of them accomplished the goal—organization—for me.
From your description, RDF won’t do it either—for me.
RDF sounds to me just like the Franklin Day Planner, i.e.,
a marvelous tool for people who are not organizationally
challenged; false advertising for the rest of us. :-)
Where do I put the note that reminds me to look at my notes?
How do I remember to take the pill that helps me remember things?

An optimist says the glass is half full.
An engineer says somebody made the glass
twice as big as it needed to be.
