careful with spackle, it looks strikingly similar to crack cocaine when it dries.
an email list I think would be an appropriate beginning step. for those interested please look up the thread entitled "mail list" in the michigan forums:
I'm having a difficult time trying to figure out how to ensure that law enforcement don't infiltrate their way into this mail list. Any idea how to mitigate the probability? The only thing I can come up with is to have skype meetings with everyone who wants to join to show their patient card and driver's ID but that would create an issue with me seeing this personal info (driver's Id), not to mention if a cop wanted in, all they would have to do is produce fake ids.
Gotta figure out a way to verify patient's/caregiver status without compromising anyone's identity.
RDMI suggested using hushmail.com email accounts which allow password protected email transmission which sounds like a winner, thanks again RD for that suggestion. To get access to this mail list you have to create an account on hushmail.com.
Everyone from the state of michigan is encouraged to join the mailing list, at which point I will create a spreadsheet organizing caregivers and patients by region (UP, NE, NW, SE, SW) with email contact info. Should be a self regulating system I would think when fully setup, everyone can take the spread sheet and add people to it and redistribute people can write reviews about overages and send them out via mailing list, ect ect.
