I'm hoping someone else will contribute a few stanzas maybe about the early days, etc :-) The VistA Story So then I said Hey Mista! Tell me what's the deal with VistA? Where can I find the story That outlines all it's glory? He looked at me real funny Like I'm just some kind of dummy But he said it plain and clear And when the words came to my ear I knew you only understand it When you write your code around it. Because the story's in the code ;chorus It's what you find between the nodes When the ancient globals sing To your coded new routines As you call down through the layers You remember all the players All the packages unique But together when they speak And that's how they tell the story Of VistA and it's glory. They say the power's down Across every little town The situation's dire There's a hurricane and fires How can the crews receive All the injured and the grieved? Do I hear someone scream Hack? ; see DSL::VistA usr/local/FOIAVistA/vista_cprs file As I reach into my pack And I boot Bhaskar's CD For VistA instantly Now a laptop servers running ;VistA can and should be modified for emergency For the little thumb drives humming ;response With the Delphi-written GUIs ;docs bring laptops, hand out thumb drives In the stadiums and movies And countless lives are saved By disks that Bhaskar made This code is not class one ;The VA model is not perfection through We will never get it done ;stated, static goals, but keeps pace with clinical changes The references are dangling ;through iteration and user interaction 'Cuz programmer mode is mangling As it kills data direct hit So now Fileman won't index it But our doctors need it now We need to get it done somehow So let's send it and then fix it Before Woodhouse even gets it ;he hates those direct calls... Just send it to New Orleans And we'll patch it in the mornin' matt -- Nancy Anthracite ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Using Tomcat but need to do more?
