Not obsolete unless you lack vision. Just difficult to acheive in a society like ours that beleives in dozens of different standards. One has to think of this in a bigger picture - ie it is not just the GP who should be writing in the patients records, but into the same record should be going all medical/parmedical data by all the many dozens of different people involved in the patient care. It will come, though probably not in my working lifetime, and it is what everyone should be working towards.
