Although I'm bracing for the expected inundation of Borg / "You Will Be Assimilated" references and pictures, I'm hoping that this may still be interesting for some. It seems to be quite a leap forward and seems poised to be able to help millions of people.

A friend of mine just had hip replacement surgery....they used titanium and said her bone would grow and meld into the titanium making it even stronger.....which I found VERY interesting.

Hmmm, no Borg references? Darn!

My dad is supposed to have a hip replacement in the near future... I wonder if he will have the same thing.

If you give people's bottoms hard points to bear directly on a chair, they wouldn't need cushions. Perfect for those hard stadium benches. . . and very interesting for people with severe bedsore issues.

I'm all for the Borg references as long as they include pictures of Jerry Ryan.
