Being the lead developer of OpenEMR, the world's most widely deployed open source electronic medical record (EMR) system, I field calls on a daily basis from people who want to implement it. As part of the due diligence to discover and deliver the best possible outcome for the client, we give them a set of different implementation options that they can consider. The options range from a basic OpenEMR implementation at their offices, to a far more advanced and feature-packed "cloud" solution called BlueEHS.
Generally we get the following reaction, "So you took OpenEMR and put an industrial wrapper around it." Let me emphasize here that, no, BlueEHS is written from the ground up, it is a totally different code base on an altogether higher platform. And it is a SaaS (Software as a service) solution.
So the next question is, "why do you have BlueEHS and OpenEMR?" I am attempting to answer that question by asking another one, "Is an open source EMR the right choice for you? If not, what are the best alternatives." Because each system has its own advantages and disadvantages.
When we talk about an open source EMR we are talking about OpenEMR which serves more than 300,000 entities in 182 countries in 36 languages. Why did these 300,000 plus entities' choose open source software? Or more broadly, why do open source aficionados prefer that path? Here are some of the advantages to using open source.
Here are a list of reasons when you should consider the use of a proprietary system:
While it is true that open source software is "free", effectively implementing complicated, interconnected EMR software is not for the amateur. You need to have a professional resource who knows what they are doing or you must be that resource. Here is a list of some of the items you need to consider when implementing an on-site open source software with specific reference to EMR.
Open source EMR suits two kinds of people.
But the need of the hour is to get away from the vice-like grip of monopolistic EHR systems. EPIC holds the medical information of 40% of the US population. The proprietary systems on the cloud offer none of the advantages of open source. Many a times they hold your data hostage. They are inflexible and unusable to the extent that the American Medical Association (AMA) petitioned the ONC to revise their testing standards. Physicians are in revolt against these lousy EHRs and Congress has made legislation to fix the EHR mess a priority this term.
Wouldn't it be great if there was a choice today that could deliver all the advantages of open source and the proprietary EHRs while negating the drawbacks of both? What would that option look like?
This is what we call an open source /proprietary hybrid delivering not just an EHR but an Electronic Health Solution (EHS). Currently BlueEHS is the only proprietary system out there that gives users all these features with all this flexibility cost effectively. We essentially took the best of open source and the best of proprietary systems and presents it to you in a friendly and easy to implement fashion.
We have spent more than eight years customizing, troubleshotting, and implementing OpenEMR for all types of customers worldwide. These include governments and Non-Governmental Organizations (NGOs). All the lessons and knowledge we acquired from years of experience as the top code contributor of code to the OpenEMR project have been used to design and develop the BlueEHS product from the ground up.
All this now allows us to provide all types of end users an option that will meet their needs:
Open source is all about freedom of choice: where else can you find these many choices for your EMR/EHR solution?

Serevent, To Be Examined By Experts Due To Deaths Associated With Its UseJul 17, 2005
Serevent, a powdered medication inhaled by asthma patients to keep their airways open, will be a focus of an FDA Pulmonary-Allergy Drugs Advisory Committee meeting today as it has been linked to 13 deaths related to asthmatic symptoms in patients who took the drug to avoid asthma attacks.
FDA documents released yesterday indicate that about a year ago, the agency asked Glaxo to strengthen Serevent's existing so-called black box warning, the most serious a drug label can carry. The FDA wanted the label to say that a study found a "a small but significant" risk for asthma-related deaths in all Serevent users and not just African-Americans, as previously indicated.
Although Glaxo halted its study of Serevent in 2003 after finding that it couldn't enroll enough people and that there was a slight increase in asthma-related deaths in Serevent patients compared to those taking a placebo, pulmonologist and vice president of Glaxo's respiratory medicine development center, defended Serevent, saying that the drug had actually proven to be very effective. However she suggested that Serevent patients should take it with corticosteroids and those who do not could be at increased risk for asthma attacks.

Although for many a meditation practice is about doing whatever they can to find that one spot in their house that provides the least amount of distraction, one type of meditation incorporates sound to enhance the journey. Music meditation is a popular practice due to its ability to open the body's energy centers so that meditators can experience openings at a much subtler level.
Tina Ranieri pens this recent Examiner post on chakra music and its use with trauma survivors. According to Ranieri, music causes higher vibrations with a person, so much so that afterward they are left feeling strengthened and with greater consciousness.
Chakra music and singing is performed to open the chakras and repair any tears that may have occured due to tramas that may have happened in your life. Over the time that the music is playing, specific songs can be done one at a time or in a series so that when finished, your chakras are open and charged leaving you vibrating at a higher resonance and feeling strengthened.
Color in the aura is related to sound, certain tones produce colors in the energy field and is used in healing. Energy surrounds and permeates every thing and we absorb it through our enrgy centers called chakras. Chakra is mixture of the energy present in every cell of the body and the spiritual energy gained from exercise and experience

Not really sure if this is the proper forum to post. This is more of a rant than anything and didn't feel it proper to post in the 4.5 group.
With the latest beta release of version 4.5 I was excited to see what the latest features would be as SW normally comes out with a decent set of enhancements each major release. I was a bit disappointed to see the lack of requested features to come out in this latest release. Now I know I'm probably going to get a ton of flack for this since this is free software and I should be happy with what I have. However if taking a look at the top feature requests, most if not all the of the top feature requests were not addressed in this latest release.
Now some of the requests probably are more labor intensive than others. I get that. However a few that I've seen look to be fairly simple requests and would probably be more of an added benefit than some of the features recently implemented.
I guess my complaint is, we have the feature request system, but there doesn't seem to be any rhyme or reason on what features get implemented.
For example - Tickets Anywhere: Great concept, hasn't worked consistently from what I've and I really haven't seen a pressing need to use this in my environment. And in fact I had not seen this feature on the feature request.
Email HTML Format: Again, love the idea, love it better than the old ticket views, but I would have rather have seen other updates to the help desk (such as merging tickets, help desk only role etc) that adds value as opposed to the look and feel. And i'm sure a lot of other users felt that way too since in looking at the spiciness for the two, merging tickets is over 175 and HTML was only at 47
Again, I hate to complain as I love spiceworks, it has been a great product ever since I've used it on 1.7. I feel that the community is great but it just seems like there's this black hole as to new features and how they get selected.

akp982 is an IT service provider.
But then for me:
Tickets anywhere is great for me use it all the time. Love it.
HTML emails was a BIG moan from my users and was more needed than the other bits you have.
From what i have seen features are picked on what Spiceworks think are great first then the Spicyness when they have time spare.
I also "think" Spiceworks have the features they want to get in in order first before digging into the FR section much. This like the new extension center are designed to allow people to make there own :-)
Hopefully someone from Spiceworks will pop over and give more details.
Oct 20, 2009 at 1:39 UTC
Hi Eric,
I can see where you're coming from. I'll try to provide some background on the constraints we have when working on a release. I hope this will help shed some light.
Features take several releases: While the first incarnation of a feature may be out in a release. It actually takes us several releases before we get close to being "done". The latest example of this is the Network Map. Before 4.0 the Network Map was the #1 most requested feature in Spiceworks for over 2 years! Sure we have the feature but as everyone knows the work is not complete. You might miss the fact that getting Network Map completed could mean that a couple of folks have to work on it for a year (as you can see this means we can't work on other features).
Mapping developers to projects: Every release we have to map out the features with the developers who will work on it. As the project becomes mature a large part of it is making sure the defects we have are getting fixed. The next step is looking at features that are already in progress (like the Network Example above). The last step is trying to map who's got spare cycles and the new work we can take on. For eg: If the inventory guys are booked on network map then it's not like the helpdesk guys can add the other inventory features.
Certain features enable other features: One of the things we realized last year is that we can never get everything you request built. We've taken the track of adding the ability to extend Spiceworks. We believe in the long run this will be beneficial to everyone. But clearly no one explicitly requests an "extension system". We do it because it helps us get the features you want implemented. Similarly we can't work on some features until we've gotten where we need to get to with the features it depends on. (Not all of these dependencies are easy to see if you don't know the architecture of the system).
Features can be implemented in different ways: One of the highly requested feature in many different ways is a mobile helpdesk. Folks want to use it from their iPhone/Blackberry/Windows Mobile/Android/<insert your favorite mobile device>. Shad came up with the clever way of using emails (tickets anywhere) that allowed us to achieve the feature without undertaking a huge endeavor. Building and supporting a client for each platform would be very hard. So we try to do our best to meet the needs in the time constraints we have.
Some features are easier to implement than others: As you can tell merging tickets was not as easy to do as Tickets Anywhere + HTML emails. So it's not always 1:1 comparison. Taking one feature one doesn't mean another feature is not implemented. It can mean several new features are not implemented.
Need for features varies from user to user: One thing I've learned from all the users I've spoken with is they view every release from the lens of what applies to them.
The largest features can go unnoticed: In 4.0 and 4.5 some of the most intensive work was upgrading the underlying infrastructure. The work we put into 4.0 allowed us to start to use Apache in 4.5. This work is completely transparent to you (when we succeed!) but this foundation work allows us to add the fancy features most folks notice and want! If it weren't for the unglamorous platform work and security updates the cool stuff can't be added!
Phew! I might have rambled a bit up there but hopefully it gave you a little bit of perspective on what goes on. We're trying our best to keep up with all the cool requests that come in.
Oct 20, 2009 at 1:51 UTC
I appreciate the feedback. Keep up the good work. I know the features i'm looking for will eventually show up. It's just a matter of when :)
Oct 21, 2009 at 1:59 UTC
akp982 is an IT service provider.
Now that was a long post... just read it all.
Also things like in
EMPLOYEE ABUSE OF GOOGLE (yes the title was all caps)
Tabrez has said
In the next community release we're adding a check on the new topic form that won't let people post if they use all caps in the subject. It'll ask them to try again.
That sorta thing helps everyone (although takes away the factor of us being able to moan at the poster)
Mar 1, 2010 at 4:57 UTC
Thanks for your response! The honest answers are why we love SW and still use it, even if we aren't 100% happy with the feature set.
You cross referenced my post on the same subject to this one, so I just thought I would link back to it for anyone reading this:

|[jira] Commented: (SOLR-792) Pivot (ie: Decision Tree) Faceting Component
|Thu, 04 Nov 2010 19:02:43 GMT

I know the query is simple and that filters are used to speed up the calls, but is still sounds awfully expensive to me. I think it can be done without the recursive faceting calls by creating packed representations (using ordinals) of the tags in the pivot fields for all documents and doing faceting on those. However, if the current implementation works fine for larger data sets, there's no reason to reworking it.

The new short story is up on Patreon! This week it's horror.
Here's a preview:
A Dreamscapes Story
by Alicia VanNoy Call
When I get Celia's note on Friday afternoon, I'm not sure what to think. It's penned on the back of a receipt and scotch-taped to the fridge and it says: Meet me at this cabin for a romantic weekend. Let's rekindle our fire! XoXo! And it has directions. We weren't what you would call a fiery couple, even at the beginning, so I'm really not sure what to think.
But I don't think it's a plot to murder us. Of course I don't think that.
I send her a text. She doesn't reply, as usual. So I shave, turn off the coffee maker, put my email on autoreply, and gas up the car. I get a little lost on the drive, but a guy walking his dog next to the winding road points me in the right direction. By the time I'm pulling onto the unpaved road leading to the cabin, the sun is nearly down. The cabin sits back in the trees, with an awning of black branches curled overhead. Lightning bugs brush the tall grasses on either side.
I pull up to the front of the cabin and park sideways in the gravel. I've got my bag with a change of clothes and a dozen roses for Celia and when I climb onto the porch, I can see through the screen door into the living room. There's a sofa and two chairs around a fireplace and a little lamp on a side table. I can smell cinnamon potpourri. Celia is sitting in one of the chairs, her back to me...

Most of our remote sites are connected either through ADSL, Lease Lines or more recently MPLS back to out main HQ.
Here is Dubai the local telco is not that efficient. Therefore we have a number of remote offices, construction sites and stores that are not wired and therefore the links are having to be 3G. THe link will be 3G USB or in some of the larger camps a 3G modem router for the larger sites.
The issue we have is that before the user initiates the VPN (SonicWall) on the local machines, they can surf to any site in the internet. This obviously is a security headache with virus' and also they visit video sites, shall we say Youtube to keep it clean.
I am curious if anyone has a similar setup and how they have dealt with forcing users to always connect to VPN.
Also, has anyone seen a 3G modem router with VPN built in? I've checked SonicWall's site as our main firewall is of that type, but their box is without 3G. One solution it to buy the sonicwall box, superglue it to the modem box and also superglue the cables in!!!
As always, any suggestions are welcome.
Thanks Andy
P.S. for those to whom it matters, Merry Christmas. To all, all the best for 2010. Here's looking forward to Spiceworks finally cracking the inventory performance issue (or moving off SQLLite) ;-))
Dec 24, 2009 at 5:00 UTC
we dont have a similar setup, and its probably not what you are looking for but we use trend anti virus, and with that you can enable remote users to have the same blocks as if they were connected via the network. we have made it so no matter if your not connected to the vpn, you try and access a naughty site, you get blocked, its great but makes you not the most favourite people within the company!!!!
maybe you may be able to do something with your av??

Have you thought of using a standalone firewall? Either IpCop or PfSense? They are both freeware and both have the facility to have a black (block) and white (allow) list. I know with IpCop you can also block keywords. For example 'Porn' 'webmail' 'xxx' Etc
We use both linux apps and each office has one of these linux servers (which can also be accessed via the putty application which I believe is also freeware (can you see a patten forming here :-) ) Or via a web gui.
Might be worth a look and you can set these firewalls up on an old ish machine which could utilise some out of date workstations. We have found this to be a very cost effective solution.

@AndrewTGI: Did you ever resolve your problem? Any HP's or BA's to give out? Thanks!
Jan 7, 2010 at 7:04 UTC
Apologies, back from Xmas/New Year and todo list has gone crazy.
Thanks Chris & Kev for the suggestions. We're going to do something similar for the CAMP wired connections - use local firewalls. I'm not sure our antivirus is capable of restrictions like Chris suggests, but reusing our old PCs as standalone firewalls as Kev says, is not something the network guys have tried yet. Everything is an excuse to buy new kit!
For the 3G connections, we've discussed with the local telco provider and they are going to configure a APN. The 3G cards are then 'marked' and can only connect data to other points on the APN (other 3G cards and our HQ link). This ensures that managers with Laptops will have the same restrictions even if they plug their own laptop into the modem box when visiting the sites.
Jan 8, 2010 at 1:08 UTC
In order to prevent these 3G users from browsing the web, or restricting any network connectivity prior to using the VPN, you will need to deploy some sort of desktop firewall software onto the laptops. You can configure the software firewall to deny any outbound connections on the laptop on port 80 and 443 for instance, but allow them to make connections on whatever ports the USB 3g card needs to communicate with, then any ports the sonicwall client needs to make outbound (vpn ports like udp500), and then configure the desktop firewall to allow all IP connections outbound and inbound to/from the subnets at the local and remote offices so no internal corporate traffic is affected. Many of these desktop firewalls (cisco's CSA, sky recon, checkpoint, etc) are centrally managed from a management server and policies can be applied to your endpoints that only block or allow traffic when the laptop cannot communicate with the management server's private IP, like when it is on someone else's network for instance. So you can configure the firewall policies to only allow those certain port connections when they are off the VPN, and once connected (and the management server is reachable), to allow all network connectivity.

When is too much of a good thing really too much?
If you're talking about natural gas drilling in the Denver-Julesburg Basin of northeast Colorado and Weld County, you're talking now.
That's because improved technologies related to hydraulic fracturing and horizontal drilling are allowing oil and gas companies to drill deeper, faster and more effectively than ever.
The resulting success over the past four years, however, has come with an unanticipated consequence: a bottleneck.
Our primary target is the DJ Basin.
Production there has been increasing significantly and there isn't an adequate outlet.
— Rick Rainey, vice president of public relations for Enterprise Products.
The robust activity is taxing the existing 20-year-old infrastructure — processing plants and pipelines — that were not designed for such production volumes or high line pressures.
Make no mistake, gathering natural gas, processing it, and getting it to market quickly is not only a big deal, but the biggest deal. When that process is challenged, oil and gas companies are forced to make some big changes.
And, they are.
Construction of the Front Range Pipeline, a 435-mile long pipeline from Greeley to Skellytown, Texas (northeast of Amarillo), is nearly complete. When finished, it will connect with the newly-completed Texas Express Pipeline and carry natural gas liquids another 580 miles to Mont Belvieu, Texas, on the Gulf Coast.
That solves the transportation issue. But, what about the processing end of things?
DCP Midstream has big plans to address that piece, too. The Denver-based firm announced plans over a year ago that it will double its processing capability by the end of 2014 and some of those projects will actually be complete this year.
Those plans include building a new processing plant in LaSalle, expanding its Lucerne plant, and expanding the Mewbourn plant near Platteville.
Front Range Pipeline
The Front Range Pipeline is being developed and constructed through an equal partnership by Enterprise Products Partners LP, Anadarko Petroleum Corporation and DCP Midstream.
Construction, however, is being overseen by Enterprise Products, based out of Houston, Texas.
Rick Rainey, vice president of public relations for Enterprise Products, said recently that construction is on schedule for the pipeline to be completed by the end of the year. The cost of the pipeline was not available.
When asked if the pipeline was sorely needed in the DJ Basin, Rainey was quick to respond.
"That's correct," he said with a chuckle. "Our primary target is the DJ Basin. Production there has been increasing significantly and there isn't an adequate outlet."
He said the completion of the pipeline will allow natural gas producers to ship their NGLs through the pipeline to Skellytown, where it will be transferred to the Texas Express Pipeline and shipped to Mont Belvieu.
Mont Belvieu is home to a multitude of fractionation plants, petrochemical plants, export facilities and refineries. It is the largest NGL market in the country.
Rainey said the 16-inch pipeline will have a NGL capacity of 150,000 barrels per day, which could be expanded to approximately 230,000 barrels per day.
That's important since the demand for NGLs (ethane, butanes, propane and natural gasoline) is very high. Gulf Coast petrochemical facilities use these NGLs as a feedstock because they are a low-cost option compared to more expensive crude oil-derived feedstocks.
Rainey said the newer, larger pipeline was so sorely needed that scores of producers eagerly came forward and signed 10-year contracts to ship their NGLs through the pipeline.
Rainey also pointed out the benefits of the pipeline go far beyond just taking product to market.
"During the construction phase, we created about 2,000 jobs, mostly construction," Rainey said. "Some have been full-time and some part-time. Now, there's going to be an economic benefit from taxes (for the state and counties) for the continue operation of the pipeline."
In addition, property owners along the route will be financially compensated for the portion of their land that is used for pipeline right-of-way. Furthermore, the land can continue to be used for its original purpose with few restrictions.
DCP Midstream plants
DCP Midstream is no small player went it comes to gathering and processing natural gas. In fact, the company — a 50-50 joint venture between ConocoPhillips and Spectra Energy — has 62 processing plants and 63,000 miles of pipeline.
It's the No. 1 NGL producer in the U.S. and represents 17 percent of all U.S. production.
It's no wonder that this powerful natural gas player is a partner on the Front Range Pipeline and a key player when it comes to building new processing plants.
DCP Midstream announced a year ago that it will be investing $5 billion to $7 billion in new growth between 2011 and 2015.
We already know where some of that growth will be: Lucerne, LaSalle, and Platteville.
Although DCP Midstream officials chose not to comment on the progress of these plants until a grand opening of the LaSalle plant in mid-October, the capacity of these plants was revealed a year ago.
The expansion of the Lucerne II plant will double the size of the plant and allow it to maintain a capacity of as many as 230 million cubic feet of gas per day.
In conjunction with the Lucerne plant expansion, DCP is expanding a gas compressor station on the SLW Ranch. The compressor station, located southeast of Weld County roads 61 and 62, will pump gas to the new LaSalle plant.
The new LaSalle plant, which will be located northwest of Weld County roads 50 and 51, will have a capacity of 110 million cubic feet of natural gas per day.
And, the expansion of the Mewbourn II plant, located near Weld County roads 35 and 38, will have a capacity of 160 million cubic feet.

I've been travelling a lot recently, and had time to think about what makes a good psychic reading and how to ensure you pick a great reader.
Here's the results of my cosmic 'fermentation'!
I'm often asked, does a psychic reading work if you don't believe in it?
My answer to this question is 'Maybe'. If you don't believe in something you're less likely to do anything with it.
For example, if your doctor prescribes you a medicine and you don't like the taste you may conveniently forget to take a few doses and then not experience the intended result.
Similarly if crucial information comes through in your reading (like "please take a holiday in July because you're going to be flat out in September") and you ignore it then the reading will not have much of a benefit.
With a little imagination, you could compare choosing a psychic reading to choosing a bottle of wine. (I am not condoning heavy drinking folks, it's just a metaphor!)
Why? Because:
1) Reputation is important, so please read what's on the label (or a reader's website!)
Just as it takes an experienced winemaker and good growing conditions to produce a top wine, it takes a spiritually mature psychic with a positive attitude to produce a life-affirming reading.
There are no shortcuts to success, otherwise Mount Everest would be covered with partying backpackers. Repeated effort is what sets a professional apart from a beginner.
You see, a first-time winemaker can fluke a good batch but it takes study and experimentation for them to produce a top drop every year. Similarly, with a little training and talent anyone can deliver a jaw-dropping reading but unless they keep practicing and raising their consciousness (through prayer and self-healing) their results will fade over time. Trust me, I figured this one out through trial and error!
2) Some things are best saved for special occasions
It's not about being a snob, but taking the time to do a little research before you go to someone (unless of course you like impulse shopping!) For example, someone with experience at expos is someone you can trust to perform under pressure at an event etc.
There are times to have a psychic reading, and times when it would be better to wait. If your favourite reader has just broken their arm and/ or you are exhausted from a 12 hour shift the session is not going to be much fun. You might as well drink expensive champagne while getting a root canal. It's going to be messy.
If you don't feel you need a reading right now, then don't let someone talk you into it (even me!) Psychic readings are like a nice wine – a glass or two sometimes can be fun, but if you have them all the time it becomes an addiction. I have no desire to attract negative karma by becoming your drug of choice, so please keep me as an occasional treat!
You'll have a much more exciting life if you invest the time in finding your own answers, be it through keeping a diary or going to a spiritual development class. Taking responsibility really is the key to success and feeling powerful in your own body.
3) You can't judge it without experiencing it
It's all very well to pick a great looking bottle of wine, but that doesn't always mean it will taste the way you expect it to.
Similarly, although it does pay to look up a reader, there's only so much you can compare them to other people. This is not a well-regulated industry, so it can be a case of buyer, take care. That's why I'm so open on this website about what I do, because I know it will attract similarly honest and courageous people.
I try not to take criticism from sceptics too seriously (See my page on the topic) especially if someone hasn't actually had a reading with me. However feedback from clients is always very precious to me and I do what I can to address it quickly.
4) Different situations call for different choices
You don't drink red and white wine at the same time (unless you're very thirsty). You pick a wine depending on the meal you're eating, right?
Choosing a psychic is much the same process. Some people go to mediums, others like to see palmists and numerologists like me. It just depends on what's going on for them at the time - wanting to connect to someone in spirit is very different o wanting to know when to switch careers.
I am a detailed, precise reader who gives timings and explains everything, that's why I attract so many business people and technical types.
I don't dilute what comes through, I pass it on! In that way I'm more like a bottle of vodka than a bottle of wine because you get a strong dose of spirit(s) when you come to see me :)
5) The more you pay, the better quality you get (usually*)
If you go into a bottle shop, you pay more for a rare type of wine than a more widely produced one. The reason is that the rare wine takes more effort to produce.
For each person who comes to see me for a private reading, I set aside 25 to 60 minutes to tune in, prepare your chart and research any anomalies that show up. It takes me time and concentration to write out your reading before you arrive. I've also spent more than 11 years studying palmistry to ensure you have an inspiring experience when we go through your hands.
Apart from that, setting a higher value for readings also means that I attract clients who take my work seriously. No one would buy a cheap Ferrari because they would assume there was something wrong with it. My prices also give me a chance to donate to more of my favourite causes and charities.
*I say usually because the psychic world is a very word-of-mouth arena – if people don't like what you do you will hear about it! That means that readers who are $150+ a session like myself are reliable, they have to be due to market competition.
6) Some people just don't dig readings/ wine
Some people aren't into wine.
Some people don't like psychic readings. That's cool with me.
When I was vegetarian, I used to get hassled by non-vegetarians all the time. They would say "What's wrong with you? You need to eat meat!". My reply was always "Hey I'm helping you out mate - you get to eat all the meat I don't touch!"
I have one body and I can only help a certain number of people in my lifetime. So I might as well concentrate on those who love what I do, because they will support me to keep going.
Just as plants grow towards the sun, people lift their game in response to genuine praise, not criticism, although criticism has its own value.
Having worked in telephone fundraising for years, I know that a few complaints are good because they mean that you are pushing people out of their comfort zones and giving 100%.
So - next time you go to choose a psychic for a reading, remember that it's a lot like choosing what to drink with a meal - sometimes it's worth taking a risk and trying someone new. At other times it may be safer to go with a reader you know and love.
You'll never know until they open the (psychic message in the) bottle whether it was a good call or not! Have fun choosing and good luck xx
