Yes. I sent out a company-wide suggestion to do this, as well

You REALIZE you just proposed that society should cave in to the bad behavior of annoying technology, right? :-)

And you know this is HL7, right? That seems like much more of a HIMSS proposal. :slight_smile:

Well, this is why we soldier on INSTEAD of caving. (This prompted me to discover the QuoteInvestigator page on "all that's necessary for evil to triumph" which is surprisingly long and time-wasting unless you're really into such things.)

Though I'm not Jewish, I've long subscribed (without thinking about it) to Hillel's "If I am not for others, who am I? If not now, when?"

Which is why we soldier on INSTEAD of caving. (Oo, I absent-mindedly looped back to the top. At least I'm consistent.)
