    Friends give me a hard time about this, but since I am very visual in my
    memory, I organize my CDs by the color patterns in their spines. I always
    remember hpw their spines look as well s I remember their covers, that
    way, I can find any CD by just looking at the many shelves where I put
    them. I only have the enveloped CDs by genera and it always takes forever
    to find any CD in that section.
