This Yahoo Newsday article can't spell, but other than that it's neat news 
:-)  I tried to send it to Lactnet, not sure if it will come through.  Basically says if you BF your babies >1 year it reduces your risk of Heart attack in your 60's by 23%.  In other words if you bottle feed you raise your risk of heart attack when you get old.
