I don't mind adding my credentials to my emails, but to tell the truth, I have found that the truly stunning breastfeeding gurus in the world are usually "just" La Leche League Leaders, and it would be a shame for anyone to discount their/our/my contributions just because they don't possess initials.

Are we requested to do that as well on this list? Is it too much to ask to have professional credentials listed with a signature and e-mail address so we can get an idea of a poster's background as we read the post?
