Hey don't worry about the post. As a lonely disconnected UX trained person working in healthcare for ten years :-), I didn't see your response as harsh, just passionate!

I have so many thoughts on your post ( you echo so many of my thoughts and experiences) I want to reply, but am busy right now. I'll try and get back to this later this evening. Okay?
Thanks,
Dean
