Gee I think we all know that a woman that orders from
the LLL catalog has already gotten some decent
information.
********************************

I don't think we can assume that.  Not all women who
join LLL attend meetings, not all women who attend
meetings are comfortable asking questions like that of
their leader, and not all leaders are good.  I'm sure
there are many good ones around, but I'm also pretty
certain that all of us who have attended conferences
and been on the internet have encountered leaders we
wouldn't ask for information on even a trivial issue.
Sad, but true.  Some have poor communication skills
and others just don't have information at the top of
their heads.  People are like that.

I think all materials need to have a nice set of well
written directions, even things that may stray off the
immediate topic.  If the packaging insert for Pure Lan
mentions correct positioning and nipple confusion and
the phone number of the Medela help line, *that* could
do more good than just telling a mother to apply
sparingly to her nipples, as an example.
