OCD, the key to defeating terrorism?

One of my best friends is finally considering consolidating, organizing, labeling, and otherwise obsessing over his photography collection, which now spans 22GB, and this was at the bottom of a rather long e-mail he sent me yesterday regarding the same:

I figure if anybody knows the best way to approach this, it’s you. You seem to understand how to create these personal data management systems better than anybody I’ve ever seen. This might be a fun write up for your website too: a friend with serious data management issues applies your personal systems to his own life, becomes safe and happy, and the terrorists lose.

Just doing my part.
