Let me add that I work on the IT help desk for a large hospital system, and encounter some of the same subspecies in the medical community seeking my help (or simply seeking some place to vent their frustrations.) It's very hard to kill or seriously injure yourself with a computer, but otherwise the behavior and thought patterns are the same.
Since I work over phone, it's only rarely that I'm tempted to drive over to the hospital and kill the client.
