All I can say Derek; is that if you think my past medical, mental and social history older than six months is useless information. Much less my familial history of a few generations. I am very happy that you are not my physician. Maybe if you had all of that information in a meaningful semantically connected network. You could practice better preventive healthcare as opposed to band-aid, reactive medicine??? :-) Cheers, Tim -- *************************************************************** Timothy Cook, MSc Project Lead - Multi-Level Healthcare Information Modeling http://www.mlhim.org LinkedIn Profile:http://www.linkedin.com/in/timothywaynecook Skype ID == timothy.cook Academic.Edu Profile: http://uff.academia.edu/TimothyCook You may get my Public GPG key from popular keyservers or from this link http://timothywayne.cook.googlepages.com/home -------------- next part -------------- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...
