Very nice board Joe and some awesome calls. Though you and others might find this interesting and thought I'd share....

May 5, SC Magazine – (Virginia) Eight million patient records held to $10 million ransom. Over eight million patient records have been held to ransom in Virginia. Wikileaks has reported that the secure site for the Virginia Prescription Monitoring Program was replaced with a ransom demand for $10 million. The note, which was placed on the 30th April, left the site entirely disabled and it remains unavailable at the time of writing. The program, which is used by pharmacists and others to discover prescription drug abuse, declined to comment according to Wikileaks, although when contacted, appeared to be aware of the issue and instantly refers inquiries to the director of the DHP, who is presently unavailable.
