Hmmm.... remember the Va Tech shootings 2 years ago yesterday? The govt
claimed they had no knowledge of the killers mental state and thus had
allowed his firearms purchases to go thru.
So, now they are asking for more power to collect medical records to use
during firearms purchase background checks.
Doesn;t sound like they're being completely honest. I guess that's par for
the course. Now you know why I am so much against additional firearms
restrictions. The govt cannot be trusted. Doesn't matter if they are Dems
or Republicans - they are All crooks.

One of my software clients is the local Mental Health Center. Some
impressive software is already available for digitizing & automating
medical
records. It's just a matter of time until all medical records are digital
&
stored in a national database for all physicians to access (with your
permission).
Thanks,

Just saw a disturbing TV commercial (History Channel) where dozens of
white robed technicans talk about what they are working on. Seems they
want to create a huge database that puts medical records, insurance
records, hospital records, etc etc where *everything* talks to everything
else! Don't know about you, but this doesn't sound like the greatest
idea.
Sure, it may make the insurance business more profitible, but at the
expense of patient privacy! We've had a regular diet of reports of
credit
card information being lost or stolen when hard drives are given away,
lost or stolen. That's *very* bad. But medical records being out there
for all to see is even worse IMHO.

Here yak go. Believe it or don't. I don't bother posting this stuff

I don't think anyone believes it's real.
