"LONDON, England (AP) -- A German who had his lower jaw cut out because of cancer has enjoyed his first meal in nine years -- a bratwurst sandwich -- after surgeons grew a new jaw bone in his back muscle and transplanted it to his mouth in what experts call an "ambitious'' experiment."..................

This is the kind of thing I was talking about on the thread about cloning and stem cell research. This is good stuff.

It's really too bad they can't use fat cells for this reseach. They could have alot of mine. :)
