Don't suppose that would reach my neck of the woods in a hurry!  But what a great thing it would be!  Right now, my new graft line has an aneurysm (just got that one  in November because of an aneurysm in another line!).  I haven't even finished paying for the November operation yet!!!   
Wishing and hoping......
