I'm not sure if anyone noticed this, but I couldn' t help but see the
irony in it. The cover pictures a scene from the horrible sight in New
Orleans after the hurricane hit. It appears to be a desperate, low
income mother holding a fairly new baby in one arm with a baby bottle in
hand, and also clinging to maybe a 1-year old baby in the other arm.
Both of these are her children---she couldn't have breastfed the first
child very long. if at all, since these babies are very close in age.
In her right hand, interestingly enough, is a bottle of water with a
label that reads "Nestle." What a powerful picture. It really made me
stop and think.... A pitiful situation and there it is staring us in
the face---NESTLE.
