For what it's worth...
For what it's worth, I have the studies that United uses to justify their position that artificial discs are not proven long term. It is the opposite of what is being asked for, but still a window into the method behind the madness. Unfortunately, the word document is 133k and as such I cannot upload it. Harrison, how can I get this on the site for everyone's reference?
