Info request on coral in bone transplants

[CEDINTERN at conservation.org]

          Dear Coral-listers: 

          I am currently investigating sustainable uses of marine 
          products.  A colleague indicated to me that recently members 
          of the list discussed the application of coral in bone 
          transplants.  If this is correct, I would greatly appreciate 
          it if someone who has the messages saved could forward them 
          to me.  Or if someone runs across other relevant or 
          interesting examples of sustainable uses of marine 
          resources, please let me know. 

          Thanks in advance for your help. 

          Yours truly,
