I'm not in the US, and I'm a white Caucasian, so it won't be any help to Amit. But when the Australian Red Cross phoned me up this morning to set an appointment to donate blood I also told them I wanted to get registered as a bone marrow donor. Until yesterday, I had no idea they could now extract bone marrow cells via blood. Excellent timing on both the post and the phone call!
