sponsored in part by supermarkets, stores, etc. that do sell ABM.  Should
they not be there b/c of that?

Is selling AIM, in and of itself, a violation of the Code? It is my
understanding that the problem is with HOW the AIM is marketted.

If the baby fair was sponsored by a company that did not adher to the
WHO Code, then I would not participate. .
However, if the baby fair was being run by a legitimate organization
but included AIM exhibitors, then I WOULD feel comfortable exhibiting.

On the other hand, I would not knowingly participate in a survey
distributed by a non-Code compliant company. My ethics are worth more
than a crisp, new $1 bill.

Just my 2 cents, norma, who loves sinking her teeth into these knotty questions.
