I have been thinking of one of those thingies for storing important personal and medical info, but I had one question, which was answered yesterday, at least for me.

I had to go to the local hospital for a blood draw, and while there I asked two different people in the admitting/registration area a question: If I came in needing treatment, and had a flash drive with my medical info on it, would you stick it in your computer to obtain that info. Both said NO, they were told not to do that because of the fear of compter virus.

So I still go with a paper copy, on bright yellow paper, shrunk, laminated, in my wallet and my wifes purse. Both copies have the important info on both of us, since we are rarely apart anyway...
