Yes. What I have been doing is creating and updating an empty but heavily 
customized TW, and using it as a template for my real notebooks. Whenever I 
want a new TW I make a copy of the empty one and start writing. 

It is true that when I need/want to update a plugin or something like that, 
I have to repeat the same operation for all the TW's I want to update. And 
you're right, it's a little bit annoying.

Actually, my TW's do not often (quite never) overlap.

Not because it is easier to email, but because it is easier to manage, even 
psychologically, I mean: cooking recipes and philosophy of science are such 
unrelated things that I prefer to have them "physically" separated. For the 
same reason I prefer to have different paper notebooks for different topics 
instead of one single huge notebook.

And the "one single file concept" is also about beeing offline. I can use 
it wherever I want, regardless of internet access.
