Thank you very much.
I have a question though:
,----[ from org.texi ]
| +If the comparison value is enclosed in double quotes @emph{and} angular

`----
So when I say DEADLINE<="<today>" and if the deadline has a
timestamp ( < current time ), then it will not be listed. Is my
understanding correct? I wonder if "<today>" should not be
better pegged at 23:59 of today's date?
