That's what they're good at. However, I use the paper systems to establish intent and track progress; it's kind of like having a boss that you can check up with to make sure you're doing the right stuff, and that it's getting done. For me, paper serves a function like executive management, providing high level focus. For everything else, I tend to use electronic systems.
