Strange Agenda behavior

["Davis, Peter" <pfd@pfdstudio.com>]

I'm noticing some weird behavior in trying to get an Agenda view:

1) At one point, typing C-c a t seemed to completely hang emacs (24.5.1) 
on OS X. Might this be due to having previously used rgrep several times 
in the session? Quitting emacs and restarting seemed to clear that up.

2) Org (8.3.2) seems inconsistend in the use of org-todo-keywords. I 
have this in my .emacs file:

;; Org agenda
(setq org-todo-keywords
       '((sequence "NOTE" "INFO" "APPT" "TODO" "FEEDBACK" "VERIFY" "|" 
"DONE" "DELEGATED" "CANCELLED")))
(setq org-agenda-files '("~/Box Sync/HMH"))

Sometimes I can see items marked NOTE, other times, the list comes up 
empty although the same NOTE items are there in the files. The buffer 
shows me:

Global list of TODO items of type: ALL
Available with `N r': (0)[ALL] (1)TODO (2)DONE (3)CANCELLED (4)NOTE (5)APPT

but typing 4r gets me an empty list.

I'm not sure what or how to get a dump that might clarify this problem, 
since nothing has actually given an error. Just missing results.

Thanks,
