I have be wondering about do-not-check lists to go with checklists.
I am mostly thinking about packing list, as it is common to overpack when travelling, so it can be good to have a list of things you think will be useful but are not. For example, if you are travelling in hotels (as opposed to hitchhiking ;)), you probably don't need a towel, because they are usually provided, so, to the do-not-pack list.
The problem with checklist, especially the ones that change over time is that they sometimes go out of control with useless items, a do-not-check list means "I removed this from the checklist, there is a good reason, don't put it back"
