[Electronics-talk] [EXTERNAL] Re: recordable medication bottlesystem

[cheez]

You are one of the lucky ones.
My wife has been trying to get her pharmacy to "get-with-the-program" for 
almost 3 years now, and I guess since the fine is drop in a bucket to them, 
they haven't complied as of yet.  And it looks like they aren't any time 
soon.
So now she has a Pen Friend.
