Hello Mark,

Doesn't surprise me a bit.  Obviously the problem is not RedHat, but the
plan for the software, testing and other things that should have
happened and didn't.  Another problem was the directive to gather all of
the information before allowing a search for insurance.  That was due to
the realization that no one would buy it (or enter their data) if they
knew what the prices were.

It is a train wreck, with a worse train wreck for the initial plan.  I
read some of the bill.  I was sick by the time I hit page 70, and
figured no one in their right mind would even consider passing this
mess.

Dave
