Thank you Nina -- and Karleen, who sent me the link to the UK site
(bookmarked already)!

I am not quibbling with the notion that the numbers CDC are showing for
exclusive breastfeeding (EBF) in the USA may need to be "seen through a new
lens," given the drawbacks of relying on retrospective data,
and uncertainties of definition of EBF.  I was zeroing in on the fabricated
number offered **in lieu of** the posted CDC result.  We don't want folks
running around quoting that number, thinking it is the gospel truth.  We all
ought to have the (hair-pulling, headache-making) joy of going back and
interpreting the "real" studies -- warts and all.
