Hi Ralph,

Mac OS X 10.9.5 with Safari 7.1.2.

The first time I clicked on the link it asked me for a certificate, which 
seemed pointless to give it for API docs so I clicked Cancel. Then it displayed 
the error.

On subsequent attempts it goes straight to the error. I guess the browser must 
be remembering my initial response.

I had been hoping to see how a RESTful web service could be easy to use, since 
in my experience they?ve always been at least an order of magnitude more 
difficult than SOAP, at least with .NET systems where basically you just enter 
the URL and click a few buttons and hey presto, you have a bunch of proxy 
classes that you can easily program against with full type-safety ? as opposed 
to hours or days of reading docs, which are probably inaccurate, and 
trial-and-error tearing your hair out with frustration to find simple typos or 
type errors, wondering how you?ve suddenly time-travelled back into the 1970s. 
But maybe there are nice technologies out there for consuming RESTful services 
easily that I?ve never encountered, so I was intrigued to learn.

I do like your description of the API of MediRecord, even if am sceptical about 
its ease of use ;-)

Peter
