Kathleen,

You touched on a sensive topic.  I have people all over-LCs, RNs, hospitals
asking for advise, references, etc to BF.  Yes, it does take up alot of time,
and expenses, but I feel that is part of my dedication to the LC field.
 People have even called for articles and slides, and I share what ever I
can.  Maybe I am dumb and foolish, but again, I feel that dedication to the
field.  I know of many others that feel the opposite and I try to respect
that.  I think there is that balance between how much we can give away free
and what we need to charge.
