 The copy of the N.Y. Times article says "...the United Nations intends   
to  conduct pilot projects in 11 countries in Africa and Asia where women   
have high (H.I.V.)  infection rates, and it is seeking donations from   
governments and foundations to pay for it."
 Why don't  we suggest ( to our local reps or through letters) that  the   
formula companies DONATE all this free formula, instead of governments   
paying for it?  After all, it is a humane, wonderful P.R. thing to do.   
 For once they can put their money where their mouths have been.  (And   
also leave less $$ for free formula packs and subliminal advertising,   
etc. for the non H.I.V. moms ?)
 Anyone else's thoughts?     -Kathy
