Thanks for all your great ideas on the "unfriendly baby fair"  I'm collecting
all the ideas and will be giving them to my friend.  An interesting thing
happened just today.  I'm on a community immunization coalition andwe had our
monthly meeting today.  It just so happened that the nursing supervisor for
this particular clinic was there, and guess what she asked me about after the
meeting.  "What do you think about having formula at our table at the baby
fair"  I almost fell off the chair :#  Well I did manage to keep a straight
face and begin about the problem of professional use of formula freebies and
how it can influence breastfeeding, but I think what made her think was I
went on about how many great "other, more important things" their clinic
offers and is trying to promote, and what a great service they are, and of
course I would be glad to send you literature about the danger of formula
freebies!.I will keep you posted on the course of the "Unfriendly Baby Fair"

It sometimes pays to be on almost every committee
