   Funny how college and education seem so much more palatable to me today than they did when I was in my 20’s. I wish there has been someone to "turn the light on for me" earlier in life. That might sound funny coming from a doctor, but then I didn’t take the high road.

   Although it has nothing to do with your photo I have to say that I wish you could have some of your Silicon Valley Gurus attack to the problems of EMR (Electronic Medical Records). Despite their costs, the programs are all disasters and none of them communicate with each other. Yet they are being forced down our throats by big government, are leading to tremendous inefficiency, and are eroding the already strained patient doctor relationship.

   We have a couple working on it for the private practice: athenahealth and Epocrates…

   In another time zone. the incubators Tsinghua, IIT are joining in engineering, etc.
   Happy 100th birthday, Tsinghua!

   to Dr. Dad: i have an urge to get a degree from Stanford…also it would be fifth degree (kinda crazy), but outside costly – as for time and money goes – route of degrees, there are so many other resources -certificates, free online classes and videos… so our 20’s in any age:)

   my company also developed Health Care vertical providing packaged solutions in information management – but we have those for very big guys mainly…

   [http://www.flickr.com/photos/jurvetson] Have used the basic Epocrates for years. The insanity of EMR is beyond belief. I use the analogy of Photoshop frequently with docs and patients. You spend $1500 for CS5 and get a wonderfully intricate program that works beautifully. You spend $50,000 on an EMR program and get a piece of crap (and that’s being nice) that you spend the next 6 months trying to get to work and fit into your workflow. Ultimately, the program remains "crap" at best. It is full of holes, leaving all of us open for greater liability. We spend more time with the computer and records and less with the patient. Ultimately, none of the programs communicate with the others so that none of it translates into less testing and expenditure! It is pure insanity!

   [http://www.flickr.com/photos/solerena] I have no urge to get another degree, however, I would love to take some advanced physics courses and perhaps some classes in the arts. Of course, one has to have time to do these things, and that is one thing that I am chronically short on. Perhaps when I am older and retired (that’s a laugh) I’ll be able to attend. Of course I fear I may need help changing my "Depends" at that point ! :-0

    Dr. DAD,
    On another front, if you practice in "New York | Chicago | Los Angeles | Dallas | San Francisco | Washington, DC", give it a try of signing up with ZocDoc.
    "http://www.zocdoc.com/"
    Your patients might have easier access to you.
