@ Flint, not to start a thread drift, but.....
When I had a problem with my shoulder, my GP referred me to a specialist, who sent me to the hospital for a MRI. Several days later, at the specialist's office, I sat in the waiting room for hours, then they put me in an examining room, where I waited forever. Finally the specialist admitted the computer system at the hospital was fucked, and he couldn't access the MRI.
Just an example of relying of computers, that bit me in the ass. Fortunately it wasn't a critical situation for me, but being a medical problem, it could have been.
