If you look at the very bottom of the web page it says "MeditechTalk.com is managed by Boldt-On Consulting Inc. Bolt-on an experienced consultant to your project today!" The "Boldt-On Consulting Inc." part is a link and is in a color that is so near the background color that it is virtually unreadable. Follow that link and I think you'll find the creator of Meditech Talk. I personally welcome another (additional) forum for sharing information about Meditech. I also agree with Julia that the negativity degrades what could be a valuable tool. Also I will stay away from any vendor that engages in negative behavior. That said, we all make mistakes. If the "Why will you join Meditech Talk" poll were changed and the references to "a certain List" were removed, I could change my opinion. Julia is right, we don't want to start trouble. The world has enough trouble as it is. Can't we just bring our offerings to the Meditech community and let their merits speak for themselves? -- Bill Palmer Financial Coordinator, Information Sys Mid-Columbia Medical Center The Dalles, OR 97058 541-296-7417 >>> On 4/12/2006 at 8:14 am, in message <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>, "Julia Carter" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > All messages should be posted in plain text.
