Is there any way we could steer this away from the gtd discussion? If GTDers 
have ideas for using it with tight, competing deadlines, great; I'd be grateful 
to hear them and see if I can implement them. But I need multiple deadline 
management (as do many program managers, project managers, and students - who 
also encounter bottlenecking issues) and I'm really hoping to share ideas and 
tweaks with people about how to do that rather than go back and fourth on the 
gtd thing.
