Please do NOT flood the FBI with requests to investigate this. I called my
local FBI office this morning, explained who I am and why I am concerned
about the formula thefts as reported by the Washington Post, and had a
lengthy conversation with the agent. I urged him to contact the Post
reporter. I had the sense that he took my call seriously. Additional calls
may not help, and may in fact hinder other crucial investigations that are
in progress. I'm deciding to trust the law enforcement system on this.

BTW, I remember that article well. The United States Breastfeeding Committee
was meeting in Washington DC on the day that this article hit the Post, and
many of us purchased copies of the newspaper that day. Happy WBW! When I
returned home, I noticed that my local grocery store has security cameras
monitoring the aisles in the formula section.

One more reason to breastfeed!
