I see a future where medical records are mini-expert systems that take into consideration a patient's whole history, where patients add in things that could be important over time (sprained my ankle, lost a lot of weight), and get advice on things that may matter to them without having to interact with a doctor, while flagging things a doctor might want to ask about next time they are in.
And, when there's an issue, why wait for the appointment? Say a patient has abdominal pain and calls to make an appointment for the next morning. Why can't they get an email with a link to a simple survey, say a dozen questions to rule out or in some simple things. After they take it maybe the survey says "I think you have appendicitis, go the the emergency room right away" or "I think you have indigestion, try these things before you appointment". When the doctor sees them the next day, she doesn't even need to ask these things, it's already there.
My father, a doctor, saw this future also. In 1968. Any day now...
Show me your bill or name the doc who said "for X dollars, I'll diagnose you and discuss your treatment, but it will be an additional Y dollars to write a prescription."
Your idiotic post proves that not only are you not a lawyer, you aren't a doctor, either. Do you really think that there are Internists, Pediatricians, and FP's so hurting for business that they want to spend a few minutes writing prescriptions for this kind of crap?
May I direct you to two laws? The first did what you propose, split banking and investment. It's called the Glass Steagall Act and worked pretty well for 66 years. Sadly, it was repealed by Gramm-Leach-Bliley, crafted by the GOP and signed by Clinton.

Blah, blah, blah, blah. Read the articles on even your search. Traditionally, 911's exhibited initial understeer that could quickly turn into lift-throttle oversteer.
This is very convenient. Now, not only do I have a girlfriend in Canada, but my civil rights are located there as well. Shame about actually living in the US...
So you watch porn for the cock? Just want to clear that up.

The error is that I posted a link to a google search to a 911, the subject of your first comment. You changed and used as reference a google search using 'porsche' as a term.
Want to know the REAL truth? Neither one of us are exactly right. I'll leave it to you to own up to your mistake while also pointing out mine. Bet you don't have the stones to do it.
Unless Wi-Fi is blacked out for the driver, the safety implications of this development are worrisome.
Seriously, kdawson, WTF is the above supposed to mean?
The quote of his is actually a coded or encrypted message. He has posted this message several hundred times. Actually, he has posted it in nearly EVERY single one of the articles he has edited. The simple message you have stumbled upon is this:

Understeer can happen in any vehicle with even weight distribution (mid-engine) or front-heavy design. The famous Porsche 911 has massive understeer - big deal.
A rear engined 911 understeers? You don't know WTF you are talking about. Seriously. Take some public transportation or something. Use the time to learn what the big words mean that you are typing. Porsche 911 is the poster child for oversteer, not understeer. When I google that for you, it seems to me that most of the top ten results are expressing incredulity at a corner case of a modern 911 exhibiting this handling characteristic.
Your basic misunderstanding of a simple and well documented aspect of one of the more famous cars the world over leads me to believe that the rest of your post might just be garbage.

AT&T hasn't been a monopoly since before most Slashdotters were born.
You've obviously never tried to cash one of my checks.
I dunno, the 'meth stare' so prevalent in porn usually has me figuring that the chick isn't feeling anything shy of a baseball bat.

Oh my, a sane and balanced law? What are they smoking?
Oh, Canada. Nevermind.
So.... Maple leafs?
Wanting them to use it and not contribute isn't a libertarian move, it's just selfishness.
The brand of libertarianism espoused most often around here doesn't merit such a distinction.
Yay for living in Europe, where the spirit of the law still counts for something.
Right, I'm sure you live in a country that didn't sign the Berne convention, right?

There was always the rivalry going on between the saab two stroke guys and the VW beetle guys
That's like two guys on slashdot arguing about who is the bigger nerd...
