I do...DayRunners! :-)  No, seriously, starting in Jr. High, I was a
semi-obsessive planner guy (yes, it's pretty easy to spot the die-hard
nerds early).  I still have every single one in a box of memorabilia
somewhere.

Contrast that with my Palm calendar data.  Due to crashes and mystery
bugs, there are several long periods since 1996 (when I got my Pilot
5000) where all my non-repeating events disappeared from my Calendar.
So, I can no longer go back and look at what I was doing between May
1996 and June 1997 and then between August 1999 and March 2001.

So, in some ways, the paper method is more long-lasting than the
digital one.  If only our new-fangled gizmos were more reliable
[grumble]...
