Yes, it does bother me. One reason it bothers me, though, is that
VistA is a Health IT system, too, and we haven't really come up with
a convincing reason why it should succeed where other systems have
failed. I don't believe the problem of finding an answer is
unassailable, but neither do I think it is easy.
