    G'day;  Just to tell you that I, like thousands of others, are
    walking around with fist sized lumps of cobalt-chromium as artificial
    knees, and many others have the same alloys in hips, etc. I have had
    mine for about 7 years with no problems. I don't think that  cobalt ,
    chromium, platinum, or titanium cause problems inside people.  
    There's too much evidence to the contrary. 

Cheers for now,
John Burgess;   johnb AT ts.co.nz of Mapua, Nelson NZ
