Or MediConnect. Which reminds me, did the patent which the Pharmacy Guild 
applied for on e-script business process ever issue (i.e. was it granted)? I 
know that I looked into lodging an opposition to the patent application until I 
found out how much it costs to oppose a patent and the additional financial 
jeopardy which lodging a patent opposition can put one into (all costs can be 
awarded against you...).
