*No one really uses fax any more. Everyone accepts PDF email attachments
instead now.*

I thought that too until I had loads of medical appointments with my (now
late) father. The health service is very fragmented and (in my experience)
are quite cagey about letting patients know their staff email.  And you
can't really be sure they are read. I got a flame from my dad's GP for
sending him an email - he had grudgingly given it to me months before - he
only read email once a week.

I haven't yet quite had the energy to plug my printer/scanner which claims
to do fax into a telphone socket. I have a gut feeling it wont be quite as
simple as it sounds. But I think I ought to before my mother gets seriously
ill.
